If you are trying to open the file for reading, you just open the file like you would any other time. There's no difference. If you're trying to open the file for writing or appending, you can't. They're READ-only. You're not allowed to open them for writing or appending. That's the whole point of a read-only file. If you don't want the file to be read-only, you need to change its permissions (which is Operating System-dependent, and has nothing to do with Perl).
