i assume you want the file name, without the path - is it right?!
if so, try this:
(my $file = "c:/progra~1/apache~1/apache2/cgi-bin/test/new/Feb23-2006_
+0_test_error.txt")=~ s/.*\///g;
print $file;
if you want to print the path as well, just use
print $&;
update
the code above will replace the path with nothing, so the result will be just the filename. you might recover the path later, as i said, using $&.
still, if you really only want to match, i guess Praveen's reply will be more suitable.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
