    Hi Gurus,

    Sorry for the off topic. I am trying to get the script working but am
    stuck. I tried googling and other unix forum but unable to get this
    working so finally I turned to you gurus. I am struggling to get this
    working since yesterday. If you can help me will be great help for me.

    #! /bin/ksh

    SOURCE=`cat source_file`

    echo $SOURCE

    sed '{

    /insert/a\

    '$SOURCE'

    }' final_file > result_file

    cat source_file

    test1

    test2

    test3

    cat final_file

    insert

    If source_file has only one line it works but multiple line fails with
    sed error. The problem is my source_file is a variable and i can't put
    it directly inside sed command.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Sorry for the trouble.

    Regards

    B
