I'm working with ASCII text files that can be so big they'll make you wince. We're talking 40 MB and up. I'm scanning all files, seeing if they contain info we want, and then extracting any desired info from each.

Or trying to, anyway. Yesterday I got a nasty "Memory Allocation Error" in my feedback. My error message said the "Perl Commmand Line Interpreter has encountered an error and must close." I'm still in the middle of figuring that one out.

Today I worked on another pile of files and they went through smoothly.

If you have a specific problem you can boil down and spell out specifically, I may be able to relate it to a problem I solved in my own script.

I'm searching many big text columns in my database and I need to extract just the html file names. So far I'm working with directories and file names. So it needs to grab the file names from examples like.

directory/file2.html
dir/dir2/testfile.htm

and list

file2.html
testfile.htm

etc..


any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Steve
