Here is what I consturcted from your example. However, it only returns the first line where there is a creat table statment. I get nothing like what you got. Could you please take a look and let me know where I went wrong.
Thanks, Bobby

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

my $file = "go.txt";

print "\nOpening $file\n";

open(FILE, "< $file") || die "OLD FILE ERROR: Unable to open file: $!\
+n";
open(OUT, "> $file.new") || die"NEW FILE ERROR: Unable to create new f
+ile: $!\n";



while (<FILE>)
{
    my $data = join('', <FILE>);
    
    $data =~ s/(CREATE TABLE "SO"\.")([^"]+)(.+)(PRIMARY KEY)/$1 $2 $3
+ CONSTRAINT PK_$2 $4/ms;

    print OUT;    
}


print "Closing $file\n";

close(OUT) || die "Unable to close OUT file: $!\n";
close(FILE) || die "Unable to close OLD file: $!\n";
