I have an perl scrip somebody else wrote. I am just learning perl by modifying this script. An temp field $dup-counter contains an counter that is suffixed with x as in 23x have no idea how big of an number the counter can grow to. The suffix is all ways one position but has different alpha values.
How do I separate $dup-counter into two new fields? $dup-number and $dup-sufix
This will do it:
$dup-number = substr($dup-counter, 0, length($dup-counter) - 1); $dup-suffix = substr($dup-counter, -1, 1);
HTH

Mark
