Hi,

open the file before you enter the while loop

#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use IO::File; my $out_fh = IO::File->new(">>/tmp/output.log"); die "failed to open /tmp/output.log" unless defined $out_fh; my $ref_db = FastaDb->new($fasta); while( my $seq = $ref_db->next_seq() ) { foreach(@ko_array) { print $out_fh $seq->header()."\n".$seq->seq()."\n" if $seq->header() =~ m/($_)/; } } $out_fh->close;

Update: I did fail to notice that you are generating the file name within the loop .

Ken's example of storing open file handles is the way to go.

Back to zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz for me!!
