I think you should study your data first. For example, how are those
fields separated? Usually fields are tab-delimited. If this is true with
your data, you can split lines with split(/\t/,$line), then the fields
will be correctly separated.

Hi List
I would like to process a file which has the following structure.
SCGR SC DEV DEV1 NUMDEV DCP STATE REASON
1 0 31 1
SCGR SC DEV DEV1 NUMDEV DCP STATE REASON
2 0 31 1
SCGR SC DEV DEV1 NUMDEV DCP STATE REASON
3 0 31 1
SCGR SC DEV DEV1 NUMDEV DCP STATE REASON
4 0 31 1
Condition is if any field is empty (In this case DEV and DEV1) those
has to be replaced by the keyword "NULL". When I am trying to split
the line based on whitespace
@elements = split(/\s+/,$line);
in $element[2] entire blank space is coming upto NUMDEV1. so while
printing I am not getting the proper output.
How to resolve this problem?
Best Regards
Anirban.
