Hi, Give the sample data and then only one can tell what kind of regex you need. If your data is simple, just fields delimited by ">" you don't need to write regex, you can just work with "split". Read the data lines one by one, and for each line use split to get the fields in an array. Also remember the list is to help perl beginners, so no one will respond positively if you just ask, I want to do this and help me. Read Perl docs, try something yourself and then post if you face any problems.
