Hi, Try using in the following way, $DELIM_PIPE = '|'; @data = split /[$DELIM_COMMA]/,$line;
or @data = split /['|']/,$line; Regards Suresh -----Original Message----- From: Wil [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 07, 2004 2:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Split the line with "|" character Dear Folks, I'm trying to split a line that contains a pipe "|" and I cann't find a way how to do it. If i put a back slash "\", it doesn't work either. Can somebody help me how to do it?
