"I still don't see the error..." You are opening one file handle (called "IN2") and then trying to print to another file handle (called "IN"). They are two different handles. Imagine that file handles are closed doors. You open one door, but try to walk through another door. Does that work? If you are in any way unsure, find a room with two doors and try it. `perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'`	[reply]

No, naming doesn't matter at all. You just name file handles because stuff looks way cooler that way. It's got nothing to do with being able to tell one entity from another.	[reply]
