Expanding a variable

2002-12-20 Thread Bob H
If I have a variable that I used to a regex to populate how can I now expand that variable? Ex: I have a variable $file that I use a regex to match a file in a directory and put that match into $file. Now I want to get that info out of the $file variable and use it in a system() call. Bob
