This code i got from you guys at this forum but it gives me these errors. " Global symbol "@fileList" requires explicit package name at ./RenamingFiles.pl line 16. Execution of ./RenamingFiles.pl aborted due to compilation errors." so what is the wrong with the Array @fileList

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use IO::File; my $dir="/Users/user/Desktop/Internet Programing Course/intern +et_programming/73/"; #chdir $dir or die "Error \n"; my @filesList= glob "${dir}*Closed*"; foreach (@fileList){ next if -d; my $oldname= $_; s/Closed/Open/; rename $oldname, $_; }
