Hi,

  I wrote a shell script to check for a file in a directory. In case the
file is found it has to

process the if statement. if the file is not found else has to be
processed.

I wrote as below. Kindly help whats the mistake and how should i proceed.

     1MONTHLY=`ls *PARTIAL_M*`
     2 if [ -f $MONTHLY ]
     3 then
     4
     5 echo "inside partial place"
     6 else
     7 echo "Error Occurred while processing" > filename
     8 fi

Thanks in Advance

Regards,
N. Gowthaman
