Hi, I am very new to PERL but if all you want to do is open an existing file and delete all of it's contents you could open the file for writing and then close it.
open(F, ">filename"); close (F); There maybe a more acceptable way to do this - but this should open the file - remove its contents by replacing the file and then close it again. Hope it helps A >Hi, > >I want to opena datafile and erase it's all it's contents.
