Re: Using read/write to update a file

In your code, print prints to STDOUT, not your myfile.csv file. You could specify the DATA filehandle, but I think you'll just be appending lines, not replacing them. Consider Tie::File.

I believe that you will end up overwriting the next record, not appending. So if you start with a file `afoo bfoo cfoo dfoo` [download] you should end up with `afoo abar cfoo cbar` [download] (untested) --MidLifeXis	[reply] [d/l] [select]
