Yes, but not for reasons you may think :) The proper way to determine the directory where your file resides is using File::Spec->dirname( File::Spec->rel2abs(__FILE__)) (dirname not official part of File::Spec, get it from here). chdir would not affect sub flatFile because it uses an absolute path.
