Hi all,

I have one input file "pick no.txt" from which i have to find perticuler pattern and print it in to output file "Numbers.txt".

The input file is "pick no.txt"


Number:
Number-1999-1011
----------------------------------------
Number:
Number-1999-0696
----------------------------------------
Number:
Number-1999-0833,Number-2004-0786,Number-2004-0747,Number-2004-075,Number-2004-0748,Number-2004-0809
----------------------------------------
Number:
Number-2000-1209
----------------------------------------

The perl script i made for this is..
#!/usr/bin/perl

open (RD, "pick no.txt") or die"Could not open file";
@Read = <RD>; close (RD);

open (WR1, ">>Numbers.txt") or die"Could not open file";

for ($i=0; $i<= $#Read; $i++)
{
 if($Read[$i] =~/^Number:/and $Read[$i+1]=~/(\w\w\w\w\w\w-\d\d\d\d-\d\
+d\d\d)/)
 {
  
  $Number = $1;
  $Number1 = substr ($Number, 7, 9);
  print "$Number1\n";
  print WR1"$Number1\n";
 } 
}

The output of the script is Numbers.txt..

1999-1011
1999-0696
1999-0833
2000-1209
The problem with this is it is not useful to search pattern occurance more than once in the same line. The numers after 1999-0833 is not shown in thw output.
Any suggestions for this?
