Hello Listers
Thanks very much for all the suggestions for solving my problem with clearing out my log file.... I've followed the suggestion by [EMAIL PROTECTED] and it does the job for me...

 -------------------------------
open FD, ">filename"; -------------------------------

What a great group!
Thanks
Tony Frasketi

Hello Listers

Is there any way in perl to effectively clear the contents of an ***existing*** file (making the file empty) ? I have a log file that I'd like to empty out after it reaches a certain maximum file size.

thanks in advance
Tony
