Thanks a million for your help. I hope I'll finish soon BioPerl installation. Your script is great and it does the job I tried to get from mine. But I have one problem: in the case when the gene doesn't contain any of motifs, the output looks like following: 
 
NM_002232 range=chr1:111015833-111020178  contains ; distance 1014

So, as far as I understand it prints out the length of the whole region situated before the exon start point (all the small letters ). Actually this kind of information is not required in the task. How this can be skipped in the outpt? Thank you once more for your great contribution into my biologilcal invstigations %)!!! P.S: this morning I have modified my script so, it almost does the job too, but there are still some problems to solve. But your support has helped me a lot!
