I am just trying to read text files which are delimited by a
regular end of line. I usually only read one file at a time, but thought
it should not be that big a thing to have two file handles open and pass
the filehandle to the sub.
Can I not ready two different text files at the same time using
two different filehandles?
If you have any problems or questions, please let me know.
Thanks.
Wags ;)

Why the if clause?
I'm not sure I understand your difficulty. But it sounds as if you're
not using seek() (or something similar) to get back to the correct
data position in your file, when you call your subroutine the second
time. If that's not it, can you identify which line of code isn't
doing what you think it should?
Hope this helps!
