    Hi,

    I have a script which runs on a system using Solaris 2.6 with the latest
    kernel patch revision.
    This script includes a large case statement.
    Very occasionally, the script does not seem to be read all the options
    within this case statement & I was therefore wondering if there was a
    maximum size or maximum number of characters that are allowed within each
    statement.
    The options that are occasionally missed, are not always the same ones each
    time.
    I have already checked for any hidden characters within the script.

    Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
