Hello and thanks for your help. It still does not seem to be working as I
expect maybe I am assuming I am not explaining myself correctly. Let me
try one more time and see if what happens.
I am reading this file and have assigned the array[2] as $partition.
sk5719::Is Automatic ARP supported on Linux platforms?::Public::03-JUL-01
sk14508::The last date to order VPN-1/FireWall-1 CP2000 is December
31,2002.::Public::23-SEP-02
skI4680::Which files to backup in order to restore the NG Management
Server::Gold/Platinum::05-OCT-01
My if statement is as follows:
if (($partition eq "CSP") ||($partition eq "Gold/Platinum") || ($partition
eq "Public") || ($partition eq "OPSEC SDK"))
{
Do something
}
The assumption is that I will get all the rows from the .txt file but it is
only getting the "Gold/Platinum" I believe this is because it is the last
item in the list."
Any Ideas?
Thank you in advance
Lance

If you are comparing numbers, you want to use == (strings use eq).
You probably also only want to have one set of parens:
if ($a == $b || $a == $c || $a == $d) {print "here"}
or you could clarify further:
if (($a == $b) || ($a == $c) || ($a == $d)) {print "here"}
You should put the following lines at the top of your perl scripts, they
would likely have helped you solve some of this on your own:
use strict;
use warnings;

If I wanted to say:
If a=b or a=c or a=d do this How would I do that?
I thought I could do it like this but it did not work.
1.
If ($a=b) || ($a=c) || ($a=d)
{
DO this
}
2.
If ($a=b) || if ($a=c) || if ($a=d)
{
DO this
}
Could someone tell help me with this?
Thanks in advance
Lance
