What line?
> Here is the code:
Try this:
__ START __
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
# ^^ not /user/
use strict;
my $dlast;
my $daddy;
my $dphone;
open (DYNIXDBF, "dynixte.txt");
my @dynixdata = <DYNIXDBF>;
close(DYNIXDBF);
# there's no need for the file to be open all the time during processing
# the file's data is in @dynixdata, so the file can be closed immediately
# and the data in @dynixdata remains.
foreach my $dynixrec (@dynixdata) {
($dlast,$daddy,$dphone) = split(/ /,$dynixrec);
# here $dynixrec holds the information you want, not @_
# i've done that assuming each field is separated using a space, if
not, use
# split(/\,/,$dynixrec) # for , separated
# split(/\|/,$dynixrec) # for | separated
# you get the idea?
print "Dynix: $dlast $daddy $dphone\n";
}
__ END __
> All I want to do is to split it so I can fo some comparing later.
This should do what you want.
