Thanks for the reply... I an actually running the program on an UNIX platform, but it still uses CRLF in the output. I have actually tried: "print FILHNDL "Text...\012";" and the output is still translated to CRLF. Will utilities like dos2unix make a difference?

For keeping it simple I suggest you to write the text file as usually with <print FILHNDL "Text...";>, then to use UNIX utilities like as "dos2unix" to convert DOS text file in UNIX text file (you can run dos2unix from within Perl of course).
