Hi Kiran, It's not too polite to expect us to read your code like that, and it sounds an awful lot like this is a homework assignment that you want us to do for you. So, no, I don't think I'll rewrite your entire script for you. However, here's the key pieces you are missing: Open a file for reading `open(INPUT,'<',$filename) or die $!;` [download] Open a file for writing `open(BSC,'>','BSC') or die $!;` [download] Loop through a file looking for dates and names `for my $searchline(<INPUT>) { if( $searchline =~ /20041204/ ) { if( $searchline =~ /^BSC/) { print BSC $searchline; } } }` [download] There are some other problems with the variables in your code, putting "use strict" at the top and defining variables with "my $var = ..." would help.

Meanwhile, I am sure, you might have seen my code in my second posting. No, that was unreadable too. Please put para tags (`<p>...</p>`) around your paragraphs. Please put code tags (`<c>...</c>`) around your code.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
