Yes, binmode should prevent the 0x0D being written to file - at least it does on my perl 5.8.4 on Win32. Not sure that this is the most appropriate place to ask about this. Try perlmonks or comp.lang.perl.misc if you don't get a satisfactory answer here. Perhaps someone there has a similar experience and can help out. Best to provide a complete, functional, (though minimal) script that demonstrates the problem - rather than a snippet. You're snippet doesn't demonstrate how you've managed to verify that the file does, indeed, contain a 0x0D. And perhaps, in checking the value on the file, you've done something improper. Without a complete script, no-one can know exactly what you have done. Cheers, Rob
