Hi Sven,
I think you have to do it on another way. Better to let perl find your date. #!/usr/bin/perl use Time::localtime $tijd = localtime; $year = $tijd->year+1900 print $tijd->sec; print "Wir leben heute am jahr: $year"; In this order we have : sec Seconds min Minutes hours hours mday day of month month Month year Year since 1900 ( So $year + 1900) wday Day of week yday Day of year isdst True if Daylight savings is in effect No you can print it in any order you want. If you got your time remote and realy want to split the date you could do it like : $tijd = "Wed May 22 11:06:34 METDST 2002" ($dow, $month, $day, $tm, $tz, $year) = split(/ /, $tijd); ($hour, $min, $sec) = split(/:/, $tm); Hope you have enough info. Good Luck !!
