-----Original Message----- From: Scott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: January 4, 2002 11:49 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: More formatting questions First off, thank you to everyone who has helped me dive into perl full force this week. I am glad I am getting to know the language! My question is about formatting. I need to strip a decimal out of a number and dash out of a date. I am importing a file and then reformatting it for export to a mainframe. The number's come in like this: 100.05, I need to strip out the decimal from that and just display 10005. With dates they are coming in 2002-01-03, here I need to just display 20020103. Thanks in advance. -Scott -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
