Guru's, I need to append 13 text files into one. The file name and directory will always be static and remain the same. I tried the file copy command, but it just over wrote the previous file.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use warnings; use File::Copy; open(LOGFILE, ">> C:/Logs/RPT_APPEND.log"); my $targetfile = "C:/testrpt.txt"; my $procdate = sprintf "%04d%02d%02d %02d:%02d:%02d", (localtime)[5]+1 +900, (localtime)[4]+1, (localtime)[3], (localtime)[2], (localtime)[1] +, (localtime)[0]; my @rpts = glob('//testserver/dir/*'); foreach my $x (@rpts) { print $x . "\n"; copy($x, $targetfile); }
Help would be appreciated. Dave R.
