Hello fellow monks;
I am trying to capture all of the individual SECTION/FIGURE/ITEM by column for each individual line. I can't read the file line by line because the data might run over to the next line. I tried to put the results of the regex into an array but that makes a separate entry in the array for each field. When I do it the way in the example I only get the first occurrence of SECTION/FIGURE/ITEM. What kind of looping structure do I need to get all of the occurrences within my data. Thanks

#!/pw/prod/svr4/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

  undef $/;
  my $data = <DATA>;

  $data =~ m{(\d+-)(\d+-)(\d+)(\s*/\s*)(\d+)(\s*/\s*)(\d+)}g;

  print "$1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7\n";

__DATA__
      PART NAME         QUANTITY    SECTION/FIGURE/ITEM
