Reading string 00 from a file

2003-06-03 Thread Sockmonkey
My program writes string to a text file and reads them back in. I do it like
this:

print OUT $str\n;

and then

$str = IN;
chomp($str);

The problem is one of my strings is 00. It gets written out fine, but gets
read in as 0. How can I stop this from happening?

Thx

Perl has no problem reading a string like this. Are you sure you don't add
it with 0 or do something else numeric in between? It works for me.tm

Ah, you are right, thanks for the help.
