Hello Monks,

I am trying to test whether or not someone has permission to read a file and if they do print it out. This is how I have it so far.

if (open(FH, "C:/web/test/test.dat"))  {
    while (<FH>)  { print }
    close FH or die "Cannot close: $!";
}
else  {
    print "No go!!!!";
}

The above code is working but my question is, is this the best way to check?
