Something along the line of:

        my $uuid ;

        if ( ! /\[uuid\s+([^\]]+)/ ) {
         # if no hit then do something
           # warn or die depending on what you expect
       }
      $uuid = $1;
     
  If you want $_ then you can do $_ = $uuid;

Wags ;)

more regexps..

$_ comes in this form: 

servername:D:\CC_Storage\Views\EUSDNKG_Madeleine_Tae68_view.vws [uuid
74a6b3b0.d1cd11d4.896e.00:b0:d0:83:b4:9b]

i want $_ to be just the uuid number that is:
74a6b3b0.d1cd11d4.896e.00:b0:d0:83:b4:9b

how do i get that the easiest way? all $_ are the same they are all within
brackets [text here variables, exept . and :]

//Dave
