Hi All, Thanks for your feedback, I modified my script..it runs but does not split the files.
#!/sw/perl5/1.1/bin/perl use strict; #use warnings; my $filename = "/home/smarter/tables/MyFileName0000"; local $/ = "\n\n"; my $temp_line; my $filehandle; #open (my $filehandle, '<', $filename ) || open ( INFILE, $filename ) || ( die "Cant read $filename: $!"); #while ( <$filehandle> ) { while ( $temp_line = <INFILE> ) { chomp; ++$filename; print "**** Open file $filename here\n"; print "$_\n"; print "**** Close file $filename here\n"; } #close $filehandle or die "Fail on close '$filename': $!"; close(INFILE);
the output is :
**** Close file 126 here **** Open file 127 here **** Close file 127 here **** Open file 128 here **** Close file 128 here **** Open file 129 here **** Close file 129 here **** Open file 130 here
Please help!
