John thank you for the example, one question about the example code... It isn't printing anything to my out file, although it does create it.
On the print $out line, I don't need print $out "$_\n"; do I? Or, the expression /STUFF:STUFF/ What if my line looks like this.. 1 17 7 PM ET:Name:Name:STUFF:STUFF:STUFF Would the example you provided still match this line? I suspect this is the issue but am not sure. Would I need something like /.*STUFF:STUFF/ ?
