Re: Printing to a file problem

try some error checking to make sure everything is doing what you think:

  open (OUT_FILE,">$OUTPUT_PATH/$SUB_DIR/$NEW_FILE") or die ( $! );

Ok, then are you sure you are opening the STATIC_HEADER file like expected? I would put an `or die`... in both of the opens to make sure. If it does not open `@TMP_HEADER` is empty and the `print OUT_FILE @TMP_HEADER;` does nothing. -Waswas	[reply] [d/l] [select]
