What you are saying is that: my $string = "Order Number: asc100 Revision: 0"; my @text = split / +Revision:/i, $string if ($string =~ /Order Number:/i); use Data::Dumper; print Dumper @text; Does not work? It produces the following output: $VAR1 = 'Order Number: asc100'; $VAR2 = ' 0'; Which seems quite correct to me... the text is as you told perl to do split on the text Revision: so the two parts that are left over are: 'Order Number: asc100' and: ' 0'. Is that not correct? What is the result that you would like to see? Providing that might help other help you resolve this problem. Regards, Rob
