This should work, shouldn't it?

open(CONFIG,">>/home/mnorris/$first_file") || die "Sorry, I couldn't create 
/home/mnorris/$first_file\n";
while (<CONFIG>) {
        $_ =~ s/0000/$first_var/;
                        }
close(CONFIG);

It should be opening the file named "$first_file" (created earlier in the script) and 
then substituting the value of "$first_var" every time it finds "0000" in the file.  I 
must be a little off course, though.
