#2: The command use LWP::Simple; no longer seems to do anything. What do you mean by that? Error message? No error message? Something else?	[reply]

I was looking at the wrong file. It turns out it is downloading but what isn't working is automatic appending. I download 11 files and join them into 1 by using `$file = ">c:/filename";` for the 2nd thru 11th files. The > command no longer seems to work. EDIT : I have my script working again by removing the > and instead combining the files after they are loaded using the windows command copy \b. Thanks.	[reply] [d/l]

I've solved the subroutine issue by removing the `do` command. Not sure why this is suddenly needed. Now for grabbing files from the internet, I was using this `use LWP::Simple; $url = "http://webfile"; $file = "c:/somefile"; getstore($url,$file);` [download] Is this code obsolete as well? Is there a replacement? Tks.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
