I have changed it to:
if ($grp =~ /E\$/) {
$grp = "E\$";
}
This however still does not grab the "E$" from the file, I have done it
several ways to try and get it to work.
Thanks,
Tim

$ is special in regexps. Used like that /(E$)/, it means a string
which where you find 'E' at the end of line. To match literal 'E$' you
need to say /(E\$)/ to make the dollar lose its special nature.
