I have a column of ID's that go by the format of 'rs#####', but occasionally I get 'rsundefined' if that ID is missing. In order to do the analyses I desire every ID must be unique, which means that it reads all of the ID's 'rsundefined' as duplicate entries. Thus, I need sort of a find and replace script, except everything it find the word undefined I would like it to add on a different integer to the end of it (ie rsundefined1, rsundefined2, etc etc) so that every ID is unique. Thanks for any help.

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).
