Hi List,

The requirement is as follows:

DBNAME=PROD ( 'DBNAME' variable contains value 'PROD' )

LINE_PROD=100 ( 'LINE_PROD' variable contains value 100 )

Now I want to echo the LINE_PROD variable using DBNAME variable. e.g
echo ${LINE_${DBNAME}} should return 100.

Is this possible and if yes, how ? I tried some ways but couldn't find any way.

Regards,
~Dilip
