Hello All ! I have been at this a week now - all over the Internet and all over tutorials - and I still have not found a way - although I feel CERTAIN it is do-able. I want to write - "print" - a line of about 20 characters to another cgi script but not at the very top - the top of a script is reserved for the #! (Perl Path) and not at the bottom. It would be fine to do it one line after the top though. I can print my line to this file just fine, but it appends at the bottom - over and over again. Can I print to a specific location? Like replace a "%HOLD%" statement? I cannot figure out how to do this. I may thank God for having found this site - and would surely thank any of you kind folks who may be able to give me some advice as how to accomplish this. With very best regards to all who take their time to read this, Donnie
