Hi all !

I'm brand to Perl programming and can't go out of a little pb.

Well, assuming a file like this below:

---date1---
data block
---END date1---
---date2---
data_block
---END date2---
.../..
---date(n-1)---
data_block
---END date(n-1)---
---daten---
data_block
---END daten---

I can't mv and/or rename this file, because is always feed with datas.

What i want to do is :
- 1) Select each block of data from ---datex--- to ---END datax---
I made this part of the job, OK.
- 2) open this file in RDWR and DELETE all the lines corresponding to
the data blocks i made the selection on, previously. That is keep only
date(n-1) and daten refered blocks...

So my question is : HOW CAN I DELETE LINES IN A FILE ?

Any help welcome; i'm stuck !

Regards.

Jean-Luc :O)
