Thanks Doug, your email put me in the right direction.
 Here is the *new* and improved printf:

printf ("%-15s          %-15s          %-30s\n",
${"DCS\_DB$i"}, ${"DB$i\_NM"}, ${"DB$i\_DIR"});

Now it works.  I am still a little confused on when to
use double quotes, single quotes and the curley
braces.  

Thanks,
James
