in reply to Perl script to print Next line after Pattern Matching

You seem to flip-flop whether or not you are going to use "$_" or "$line" inside the while loop. The data is read into variable "$line" but you chomp "$_". The "if" statement is doing nothing with "$line" and neither is named on the print statement.

In your case, I would follow the previous advice of producing a tab delimited file for import into Excel.
