Generally it help if you show us a snippet of your code. I'm guessing that you're opening the file for read, let's call it FILE and doing a while (<FILE>) loop. Now, I'd guess your error is that you are using <FILE> again somewhere within the loop, but without more information, and ideally some actual code, it's very difficult to debug. /\/\ark -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
