I can't even run YOUR code based on your first message. I wouldn't know where to begin writing something from scratch, as I have no understanding of what you are trying to accomplish.

And, as has been previously noted, PerlMonks is not a code-writing service. You may not be a software engineer, but you seem pretty bright in your field and apparently you need to use Perl to get something done.

I'm glad to help you, but I can't do your job for you. I lack the knowledge of your profession.

Please help me understand and I will be glad to help you.

Perhaps we need to take a different approach. You seem to think you've told me everything you need in the first message. Using that information, I can't even get the same results you do in your Perl script.

So let's take a different approach. Please post your exact command line when you run your Perl script so I can see what you're doing. Also please post results. Just like I did in my previous message.

Show me what you typed and what results you got, and maybe we can bridge this gap in our understanding.

Unfortunately, my wife is demanding I come to bed now, so I will be unable to respond for many hours.

Looking forward to your reply.
