The pype symbol is a regex metacharacter. If you want to match a literal "|", you have to escape it with a backslash:

 @dataarray = split("\|",$Sentance);

Hello Listers,
I am currntly working on ARS 4.5. Perl script is unable to identify the pipe Symbol.
open(Datafile, "$Datfile") || die("data file open failed"); foreach $Sentance (<Datafile>) { @dataarray = split("|",$Sentance); print "$dataarray[0]\n"; print "$dataarray[1]\n"; print "$dataarray[2]\n"; } close(Datafile); Where $Senctence = ABC|DEF|GHI When i run this the result is: A B C But expected result is : ABC DEF GHI

Seems If I replace pipe with " , " ( with comma) it is working. Please help in this regard ASAP>
