Yes, some of us probably can help. We'll probably need to see what you're trying so far to be able to give the most helpful responses possible, however, for solving your problem. Right off the top of my head, without any other information, I'm just inclined to say "Try using 'while (<>)' to access file contents." That may not suit your needs at all, though, since I don't know exactly how you need your file access to fit into the program. -- CCD CopyWrite Chad Perrin [ http://ccd.apotheon.org ] print substr("Just another Perl hacker", 0, -2); -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
