All,

I need to parse lines from a file and at a certain position test to see
if it is what a want, if so I need to grab information from other
positions in the line and drop it into a file.  As I have never done
this before, can someone point me in the right direction as to get
started?

Thanks for the help!

I think part of what you're looking for is seek(). This will allow you to move the cursor to a specific position within a file in relation to the cursor's current position.

I'm still quite new to Perl, so I'll leave the more complicated answers to those with more experience in this area. :-D
