in thread Finding out what computer does NOT have certain data

So I get my Computer information from a script I have created that gets the information and parses through another file to get the list I gave you guys (of course it is only a snipet of my list because I thought putting 150+ computers worth of data was a bit much).

In your code, you have the line, while (my $line = <DATA>) {

The <DATA> would that be me openining the file using a statement beforehand that looks as such?

open (DATA, "One.txt") or die "One.txt: $!"; while (my $line = <DATA>) { chomp($line); if ($line =~ /^KB\d{6}/) { $computers{$computer}{$line}++; } else { $computer = $line; } }

    I have it and it works now. The end rsult is an excel sheet that outputs the information in alphabetical order. SWEET!

    Though I still want to learn more so I am trying the rest of the suggestions here. Have to see what i can and cannot understand.
