RE: Matching the first string

Check out 'perldoc perlre' and 'perldoc -f substr'. If you are using a regular expression, you can use the '^' character to denote the beginning of the string, and parentheses to grab what you need. You can also check out the substr() function. -Original Message- From: alex litvak [ma
