you are escaping your .'s though not want you want to do:
need either ..\\..\\workflow.txt or ../../workflow.txt
Use one or other and should work if file is there.

Subject: help with open open function
I am using the following statement to open a document.
open("..\..\workflow.txt", "Workflow")|| die "Cannot open Workflow $!\n";
1. the perl.exe resides in e:\perl\bin\perl.exe
2. the workflow.txt reside is e:
3. the error I am getting is "Cannot open workflow No Such file or
directory"
What am I doing wrong.
I have tried to place them in the same directory structure and just use
open(workfloe.txt) but receive the same errors.
