Unsure what you are trying, but:
if ( /^T...A/ ) { # When try
# if Starts with a T , dont care about 2 thru 4 and the 5th char is A
}else {
# not a hit do work here
}
Wags ;)

Subject: matching
Hi perl masters,
I am a very "beginner" of perl and I have a very simple question. I want
to match characters within a sting of letters.
ex: TCATATTG
I want to match character 1 to "T" and character 5 to "A" how would I go
about doing that? Thanks so much for your help.
Henry
