John,
Both symbols are metacharacters when used in a regexp and must be escaped.
Try:
$del=\^;
Or better, try not using a scalar variable.
Just use the delimiter:
@fields = split /\^/,$record;

If you are on windows 2000 you can do it by going to
Control Panel, double click on Scheduled Tasks, and run Add A Scheduled
Task
This allows you to either set a time to start, or to run
when your computer starts
I hope this helps

Hello Sandeep,
I have experienced that this scheduled thing is not working
in every case.
Also the Startup alternative solution requires someone to
log in.

Not really - there is no true signal interrupting mechanism.
Ctrl-C has some support,

Thanks for the reply Bill.
This program actually runs as a service, spawning
threads to write text files and sometimes those
threads die. When that happens we dont see a response
from the service until the file clears itself.
I will look into freeing the lock, perhaps I can hack
something

Perhaps the best way to do this is to add a key in the windows registry. Place the new key at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Give it a value of the name of your script. Be sure to include a the full path.

Wizards,
I know I'm going OT here with a Windoze question, but I'm not in the Win list anymore, sooo
Is there a non-fatal, non-Windows-error-causing, way to determine if:
1. the required 3.5 diskette is in the drive AND
2. the required directory exists on the diskette in the drive AND
3.
Look up the -x operator in the perl documentation. (it's not actually -x
it's a whole group of operators which start with dash and are a single
letter). This will tell you existence of files, and if they are directories.
I would assume they don't exist if the disk isn't in the drive (nor would

Thanks to all ...
This seemed to be simpler than I was making it ---
yes to the POSIX answer - cool
and yes to even simpler INT($A/3) answers
I think my brain was just telling me that INT would
round incorreclty up on some numbers and that it would
work for cases were it was .5 for example...
However, from the Perl Docs perlfunc:
int EXPR
int
Returns the integer portion of EXPR. If EXPR is omitted, uses $_. You should
not use this function for rounding: one because it truncates towards 0, and
two because machine representations of floating point numbers can sometimes
produce
Title: RE: brain not functioning ... simple algebra problem
You would use int to truncate (i.e., divide and throw away the remainder, or, if you prefer, always round towards zero), which was really the point of Mr. Pataki's issue. The perldoc is correct if you're interested in mathematically
