Re^3: changing a string to a useable date time

cpiety,
That is a copy/paste error on your part. You should use the 'download code' link instead. As you can see

my ($yr, $mon, $day, $hr, $min, $sec) = unpack('A4A2A2A2A2A2', $st
+r);
[download]

Should be

my ($yr, $mon, $day, $hr, $min, $sec) = unpack('A4A2A2A2A2A2', $str);
[download]

Cheers - L~R

thanks, it runs now. I guess Perl ignores white space but not "+r"! Thanks for your patience. I am not a programmer and decided to try and learn PERL to process some data. *Frankly....It is kicking my butt.*	[reply]
