Hello trey5498-
Ok, so I cleaned this up a bit and added code tags. After I installed Text::CSV, this code ran perfectly well on my machine. It basically takes every comma separated value and pushes it onto the @printerstat array. Is that what you intended? If not, you'll need to be more specific about the goal your attempting to reach and the problem you're encountering.
Please note the use of use strict;
use warnings;
at the beginning of the script. I've been casually coding in perl for a few years now and have found them to be invaluable.
Also see PerlMonks FAQ, Writeup Formatting Tips, and How do I post a question effectively? to familiarize yourself with the surroundings.
use strict;
use warnings;
use Text::CSV;
my @printerstat = ();
my $file = 'inputdata.csv';
my $csv = Text::CSV->new();
open (FILE, $file) or die "Couldn't open location file: $!";
while (<FILE>) {
$csv->parse($_);
push(@printerstat, $csv->fields);
print @printerstat;
}
close FILE;

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).
