in thread When is defined true?

Thanks (once more) for the reply.

Turns out I was not in the directory I expected. In fact, I was not in A directory. Turns out the "\\" (DOS backslash) was not being interpreted. When I changed them to single forward slashes (UNIX), all ran as expected.

Odd thing though:

I'm running on Win2000.
I'll go back and read some more documentation/materials on Perl.

Thank you for all your replies!

    You can almost always use forward slashes for path separators on Windows in perl (except when you're passing a path to a system command).
