So, my problem may be solved with while loops? If you are interested in looping through all "next" results, that would be a good start.

I should not have to use a loop. I have tested the program locally and it works. Read more... (2 kB) When I use it as a subroutine in a larger program is when I run into trouble. I have checked and it is reading in the file. Any ideas?	[reply] [d/l]

You have this in your standalone program: `my $in = new Bio::SearchIO(-format => 'blast', -file => $maid_dir."/".$maid."aln_hu.aln", -report_type => 'blastn');` [download] But you have this in your sub-routine: `my $in = new Bio::SearchIO(-format => 'blast', -file => ">".$maid_dir."\\".$maid."aln_hu.aln", -report_type => 'blastn');` [download] Could it be that the "`>`" stops Bio::SearchIO from reading/parsing the file?
