Hi all, I am struggling to write a program in which i have to read 2 diferent type of loops from many .doc files. These files consist of data as 
data1;
if(some condition1 = 1) then
read this data 2;
end if;
if (some condition2 = 0) then 
read this data 3;
read data 4;
end if;
if(some condition3 = 11) then
read this data 5;
data 6;
end if;
if (some condition2 = 0) then 
read this data 6;
end if;

from which i have to read some data I am trying to check only for condition 2 and thus to get the output: 
read this data 3;
read data 4;
read this data 6;

I wrote a prog to read the only condition 2 and try to read multiple files as: 
open(WORDLIST, <*.doc>);
while(<WORDLIST>)
if(/if/)
{
if(/condition 2/)
 {print "$_";
 }    
 else{}
}
open(WORDLIST);

Am not able to read the desired output lines nor able to read multiple files. If a write a file name eg open(WORDLIST, <test.doc>); then am able to access one file at a time. Could u guys please help me.. Thanking u in advance...
