Thanks for everyone's input and suggestions. For some reason CUT was not
being cooperative, so I delved further into my reference manual to find
another way to skin a cat. The solution was ...gawk. See the complete
solution below.
Input Script
VALUE1=`arkc -drive -read -D name=BisonTape`
echo 'Value1 : '$VALUE1
VALUE2=`echo $VALUE1|gawk -F= '{ print $2 }'`
echo 'Value2 : '$VALUE2
Display Output
Value1 : tpname=Wednesdays
Value2 : Wednesdays
