RE: RE : crontab question

The only way I know of to do this is set up a cron to run every Sunday, then within the script see if it is the first Sunday of the Month.

Here is what I have been using:

if [ `date +%d` -gt 7 ];
  then exit;
else
  PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin

  . /usr/local/bin/oraenv

  sqlplus XXX/XXX @X.sql
fi
