Hi,
Hopefully this is a quick question. I wrote a script to set an enviornment
variable based on the $USER value. The routine does not set the variable.
Below is the case statement we are using. What is going wrong that it
would not set the env variable ALLOW_AE_UDT in this routine? What is wrong
that if I add the line to set the env var at the end it still will not work.
I am using the Korn Shell on AIX 5.2.
Thanks in Advance!!

echo 'Set to frank';
ALLOW_AE_UDT=NONE;
export ALLOW_AE_UDT;;
*)
echo 'Set to all other users'
export ALLOW_AE_UDT=ALL;;
esac
