Hi -
You need an or conditional ('||') not operator ('|'):
open(MYFILE, ">$myfile") || die "Cannot open file";
^^
Your message should appear! || you can use 'or'. :)

Subject: Where do die messages go?
open(MYFILE, ">$myfile") | die "Cannot open file";
Where does the die message go? When I run my script from the command prompt
I do not see the die message. I do get an error about the directory for the
file not existing, but it is not my die message.
This is on Win 2K
