Hello, Im trying to read a large file. It gets cut off when i use the @array = <file> method. I also need to load the file into a variable before i parse it. What is a better method for this. \

Updated: Code

open (F,$r) || die "Couldnt open $! $r";
$r =~ s/\./1\./;
#@Data = <F>;
$store = "<Head>";
foreach (@Data){
    if (/.*<B>/ && ! /Last modified/){ #If line is a title
    $temp = $_;
    $_=~ s/(<[^<>]+>)+//g; chomp;
    if (/\(/){
        $store = $_;
        $DB{$store} = $temp;
    }else{
        $store = $_;
        $DB{$store} = $temp;
    }
    }else{                              #Not a title
    ($store ne "<Head>")? $DB{$store}:$head .= $_;
    }
}
