SORRY! copy-and-paste-error...I tried it without the ### ;-) and tried too the print-statement-thing. Seems the regex is wrong, but why? Jane

Two questions:
I've got a test-file and want to add something to some lines, while reading it out.
I tried the following code:
while (<TXTFILE>) { if (/pattern/) { #$line = $_ . $something; #push (@new_array, $line); } else { #$line = $_; #push (@new_array, $line); } }
The code that appends the array is commented out...... if I assume that you have tried it without the comments, try putting a print statement inside the 'if' block, this will atleast let you know if your regexp is correct.
