No that did not work, thanks. I remember the command I am more specifically looking for, it is a command that says to do expansion twice on a line, anyone remember what this is?

basically if you have a variable that looks as follows

echo $FOO

-g "dba apps"

the double quotes will get exanded another time so they are picked up correctly when you call

foo.sh $FOO

Ethan, I had a similar problem when using the getopts command when using it in conjuction with nohup and the &. I found by throwing ksh in the syntax everthing worked. i.e. nohup ksh setup.ksh -a parameters &

This may or may not work for you but it's worth a try.
