Why doesn't stat() work?

Hi all, The function stat() doesn't seem to work in my version of ActiveState Perl 518 running under Windows NT 4 SP 6. I get a null array even though the file handle IN is alright. My aim is to try to get the creation date of a file and convert it to human-readable form for a report. Any idea

RE: Command Line Argument Problem

Can you send a code snippet? A couple of suggestions from the hip: 1. Try encapsulating the $ARGV[0} in quotes for example: $Foo = "$ARGV[0]"; or $Foo = qq!$ARGV[0]!; 2. Use a regex to substitute out the = with an escape char for example: ($Foo = $ARGV[0]) =~ s/\=/\\=//g; #NOT
