Seeing what your data looks like would be very helpful.
You say it is a text file which would imply carrirage returns, but
no where do you disable the record separator so I don't believe you are
reading all the data into your array.
You do a foreach putting the data into a variable but then you pull
off @_.
What are you splitting on? White space, commas, ?????
Here is a shor, just reading in your file and splitting on multiple
white space. Declare the variables you wnat in the loop verses outside.
open (DYNIXDBF, "dynixte.txt");
foreach ( <DYNIXDBF>) {
my ($dlast,$daddy,$dphone) = split(/\s+/, $_);
print "Dynix: $dlast $daddy $dphone\n";
}
close(DYNIXDBF);
Wags ;)

Hi,
Hopefully someone here can help me. I'm reading in a text file, and
setting it to an array, and I want ot sp lit that array in 3
variable,
but I kepp coming up with, 'uninitiated value in contatenation (.) or
string and line ..."
Here is the code:
#!/user/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $dlast;
my $daddy;
my $dphone;
open (DYNIXDBF, "dynixte.txt");
my @dynixdata = <DYNIXDBF>;
foreach my $dynixrec (@dynixdata) {
($dlast,$daddy,$dphone) = @_;
print "Dynix: $dlast $daddy $dphone\n";
}
close(DYNIXDBF);
All I want to do is to split it so I can fo some comparing later.
Anyone have any ideas?
