Hey all,
I'm trying to open a text file, collect the file into an array called
@records. Then I'm going to write the data back out to another text file
based on a variable such as:
$sfield and $var are fed from an HTML doc.
If ($sfield == 1) {
>>open (INFILE, "<mytext.txt")
>> or die "Error opening mytext.txt. $!, stopped";
>> @records = <INFILE>;
>> close(INFILE);
>> foreach my $rec (@records) {
>> $w = $x++;
>> chomp($rec);
>> ($val, $val1, $val2, $val3) = split(/,/, $rec);
>> if ($var == 1) {
>> open (OUTFILE, ">mytext2.txt")
>> or die "Error opening mytext2.txt. $!, stopped";
>> **comparison that looks for ($val == "Ronald")****
>> **second array built only with records that match
criteria***
>> **only those records written back out to the new text
file***
>> }
>> if ($var == 2) {
>> open (OUTFILE< ">mytext3.txt")
>> }
>>} #and so on....
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark
