Hi Chris,
You want to get the result of the split in a list context (and not in a
scalar context). So you have have to enclose the variable list between
parenthesis.
($Activity_Date,$Activity_ID,$Activity_Owner,$Activity_Name)
= split (/\s+/,$Activity_Detail_Line);

Bill,
Another simplier challenge:
I need to put each string prior to a
space into a seperate variable. Here is my string:
05-Dec-01.10:00:50
activity011204.221111
CLUNGU "(31246)"
Here is my command to dump the
variables:
$Activity_Date,$Activity_ID,$Activity_Owner,$Activity_Name
= split (/\s+/,$Activity_Detail_Line);
It is returning:
Results of the split is: Date: ID:
Owner:
Name:4
I thought that the \s+ - will return
1 or many spaces between, hence split the string into the (4) buckets
using
a space as the delimiter.
Thanks in advance for the help
