It looks like you forgot to specify the file handle when printing. print CHECK "$ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}"; }

I've verified that the code can find the file, open it & overwrite any junk/test data already there with nothing. I've also printed out the IP address on the previous page using just the print statement. <CODE> sub pcheck { if (param('pwd') eq $pw ) { open (CHECK,">${path}dmp.dat") || die "Cannot open dmp.dat: $!"; flock (CHECK, 2) if ($flock); while (<CHECK>) { print "$ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}"; } close (CHECK); flock (CHECK, 8) if ($flock); } else { &invalid_info; } &ad2; } </CODE> All help is appreciated. Thank you for your time. -- Best regards, K.L.
