Newbie Question

But how would I go about having the value be dynamic? 

/u/appl/filepro/vregstr> /u/appl/fp/dreport vregstr -f CAK_Data1 -u -p /tmp/Anzio_Shipment_Mapping -pc "nocodes" -s cakSelection1

This works with a saved selection but I want the value I am looking for to be dynamic

The easiest way (in my opinion) would be to create and name a
selection set. Depending on what you're looking for in field 60.
Something like:

60 eq Y

Save that with a name of 'vregstr' for instance and then your script
line would just have to change to:

/u/appl/fp/rreport vregstr -f CAK_Data1 -s vregstr -u -p /tmp/cak_output -pc "nocodes"

I suggest using the same name for the selection set to remind you at a
later date that it's associated with a specific report.
