What have you tried and where did you get stuck? Show us a little sample code and explain what's not working. Note that you can simulate files using strings for test purposes. Consider:

use strict; use warnings; my $file1 = <<'STR'; "111yu",erter,"00000", ,"567" "gh6fr",erter,"00000", ,"567" "1t76y",erter,"00000", ,"yu7" "yu84e",erter,"00000", ,"5h7" STR my $file2 = <<'STR'; 111yu 345cv yu84e STR for my $file (\$file1, \$file2) { open my $inFile, '<', $file; print while <$inFile>; close $inFile; }

Prints:

"111yu",erter,"00000", ,"567" "gh6fr",erter,"00000", ,"567" "1t76y",erter,"00000", ,"yu7" "yu84e",erter,"00000", ,"5h7" 111yu 345cv yu84e
