Re: Help on foreach loop

I think @ARGV is only reaccessed by <> when the ARGV file is at eof/closed. Try: $newfile = $ARGV, close(ARGV), last if /^"$commonField"$/;

I think it's still needed, even if it doesn't fix your apparent problem. Have you printed out @ARGV before and after the while loop to see if it is as you expect? I suggest lots of print statements or a run through with perl -d.	[reply]
