Either use: my @file = <ARGV>; foreach my $line (@file) { print 'count' . $count++ . $_ . "\n"; } Or: while (<ARGV>) { print "count $. $_"; } Note that ARGV can just be written as <>. I *think* that is what you are looking for. Jonathan Paton __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
