better way to use "equals"?

[Nolan Ring <No...@Sun.COM>]

Hi,

I'm just wondering if there is a better way of doing this.

My goal is to set the properties sqlplus1.prop and sqlplus2.prop and then determine success based on the return value.  This following code works but seems a bit clumsy, especially since I have to check the return status of several additional exec calls.  

Thanks for any feedback.
