`open(PASSFAIL,">>./instLvsOut/passfail.tmp")` [download] Because you are opening the file for output only and you can't read from that filehandle.	[reply] [d/l]

To check whether the passfail.tmp file is empty, I tried the command system("cat ./instLvsOut/passfail.tmp"); just before the line @fp0 =<PASSFAIL>. It displayed the content of the file properly. It was not empty. Any idea why this code does not accept values in @fp0 =<PASSFAIL>	[reply]
