in reply to 2 Working Subroutines Conflict

The problem lies in the renaming of the file. Once you rename the file, $coeodir no longer has the correct filename, so your splitter routine is trying to open a file that does not exist. Pass the new filename to the splitter routine and it should work fine.

    Or on a real OS you should be able to open a handle and then rename the file without any ill effect. You could then just pass a handle to the splitting routine.

    The splitter routine is based on directories, so how would I do this?
