Re^3: Splitting file into separate files based on record lengths and identifiers

This is the data that breaks my original script:

0002*330004%19770004$BOB 0002*430004%1967
[download]

...it results in spitting this into the dollar.txt file and nothing into the other two.

0002*330004%BOB 0002*430004%1967

Thanks!

As I mentioned in Re^3: Splitting file into separate files based on record lengths and identifiers, I suspect your issue is that you are not anchoring your regular expressions. What happens when you change lines like: `if( s{ (\d+) \% }{}msx ){` to `if( s{ ^ (\d+) \% }{}msx ){`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
