Bart,
Thank you for taking the time to write the code and explain the perl. Your
examples are excellent for a newbie like me.

I want to thank everyone for helping me with the regular expressions and text
formatting. I really have learned so much from this list.
Thanks again,
Kathy

Hi Bart,
thank you for your good script.
Because of this error message

I changed your script a bit; I replaced the lines
use Data::Dumper;
print "Record: $id\n", Dumper $record;
by the line
print "\n\n(Record:) $id\n", jo

lost formatting, I hope someone has had experience with this problem
Hi everyone,
I'm learning to use regular expressions. Would you please give me advice about

I have written a perl program that parses a file and organizes the data into
