Hi, i'm trying to understand what you created and piece by piece i'm putting it together. But when i run it i get the following error.

utf8 "\xEB" does not map to Unicode at C:\bla\bla\bla line 9, <$IN> line XXXX.

So i'm guessing this has something to do with the encoding. I'm not sure what kind of encoding i use. Is there a way to look this up in my file? Or is it possible to remove the encoding part? , '<:encoding(utf-8)' so it will read it as a normal file perhaps? Because i didn't need it before.

@ BrowserUk / jwkrahn: i dont have enough experience to work with your answers i'm afraid

edit: When i remove the encoding part i get this: No such file or directory at Z:\Data-Content\Data\test\jan\ALL_DATA\ori.pl line 13, <$IN> line 50001. (line 50001 being the end of the input file). What am i doing wrong?
