I'm having some problems running my current program. I need to take a file of customers information (each line is a new customer) and substitute it into a template. Each customer info will created a file from the template and will be named using the customer's email and placed into the Email subdirectory using awk and sed. Right now my program is not 'doing anything' except printing the line ./test.bash: line 19: Emails/: Is a directory .

The line
sed "$detail" "$template" > "$OUTPUT_DIR/$email"
uses the parameter email which is defined for awk only what does not affect the shell environment.

I see what you mean about the shell environment variables. Since Im usingawkto set the variables and to create asedfile, is there anyway I could get the customers email from the file while doing that, or would I maybe have to run a read loop on the file at the same time also to get each individual customers email were the>"OUTPUT_DIR/$email"is? @Hauke Laging

Perhaps a newawkcommand to print the email or agrepcommand?

@below_avg_st what you probably are looking for here issource: ss64.com/bash/source.html This runs the file in the shell that called thesourcecommand as opposed to a subshell. A benefit of this is that if you have a file that just sets variables, you can usesourceto pull them all into a different shell.
