Your code works for me, after I made a simple substitution of opendir(TEXTFILES, ".") || die "Couldn't open the text file directory: $!";
instead of trying to open directory "desktop".. You need to change to the "desktop" directory, because you're doing the test on the current directory..
HTH
The full code that worked for me follows:
use Cwd;
print "Current dir is: ", cwd, "\n";
local $_;
opendir(TEXTFILES, "c:\\CA_LIC") || die "Couldn't open the text file d
+irectory: $!";
@data=readdir(TEXTFILES);
foreach (@data) {
print $_, "\n" if(-d "C:\\CA_LIC\\$_ ");
}
closedir(TEXTFILES);
Update:ZZamboni types faster than I do :o), obviously, he's said what I've tried to say too, better, in fact :o)

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).
