in reply to Checking files in a directory
Thank you all so much. I will make these changes. I am just getting back into perl after a few years off, and was only new even then, so some of your questions and suggestions are a little over my head, but I have books and a thirst for knowledge, so I'll keep working on it. The ironic part is the old pprogram still works. I just added an ini file read upstream of this logic. I'll will undoubtedly be back. Thanks again, so glad the monastery is here.

Well I added in the changes, and I can see some improvements, but the array was still empty. So determining the INI file was the issue, I dumped it in hex to find every line including my file mask parameter had trailing blanks. So I would never get a match. It's running fine now. I sent the program to a couple of people this morning, and you've made a perl newbie look like a rock star. Thank you all so much for your help. | [reply] |
