Need Help??

in thread rename issues

You don't want to keep the old file? Add unlink($old_file_name); at the end. You can't read from and write to the same file at the same time, so you have to do it at the end.

Ok so we have that done, but there is still an issue here as I can't open the $old_file to read as the rename is ran first, so with that said should I rework the code to rename after the files have been modified? SUNADMN *USE PERL*	[reply]
