Dave, thanks for your feedback, but I copy and pasted the script from the
file on my Solaris box to a file on my Linux box. I understand what you are
saying, but I don't see where the missing quote should go. Putting it at the
end of the last line as you suggested results in the same error message I
received before, so I don't think that's it.
