in reply to issue with sprintf..

I get four times the same value, so it works for me. Also, it looks as if you want to pad shorter than 11-digit numbers with leading zeroes, this can be achieved by 

$Val1 = sprintf("%011d", $Val1);

    Your Perl is compiled for 64 bits?

      Yes, it is. Could "%u" be helpful?

        nope, already tested.

          DB<112> $val=12143951645
 => "12143951645"

  DB<113> sprintf("%11u", $val);
 => " 4294967295"
