Hi, Thanks for your reply, now have it sorted.

Hi, I would like to open and read a file that is in this format: Time|Username|Email|IP for example: 1345289299|Test|stinesofe@changesmile.org.ua|82.45.104.76 After reading a form input that includes $username and $ip, if the Email or IP are not listed in the file, then I would like to add...

Sorry it's late but just want to say thanks to feherke for his patience and knowledge. Everything I wanted to achieve I have. Thank You

That's done the trick, I'll do some more testing and let you know. Thank you, much appreciated.

That last code completely mucks up the table layout of my test forum for some reason. These dat files are only small, never seen one larger than 1Kb

That's correct, if sn's value is administrator then leave the siteurl and sitename intact.

One last question. Is it possible to skip if the user is administrator? This is the line in the .dat file sn = |Administrator| Cheers

You are a genius Sir, thank you very much, all working like a charm.

start dat editing directory is ./Members files to process are ./Members/1.dat./Members/2.dat./Members/3.dat./Members/4.dat start file ./Members/1.dat write temp file /tmp/08yw9L8QjX rename file /tmp/08yw9L8QjX to ./Members/1.dat 0rename error Invalid cross-device link end file ./Members/1.dat...

My mistake, it's not deleting any of the lines, it just reorderd them. Here's what I now get: start dat editing directory is ./Members files to process are ./Members/1.dat./Members/2.dat./Members/3.dat./Members/4.dat./Members/5.dat start file ./Members/1.dat write temp file /tmp/nKijKk93AQ...

Thanks, almost there. It is now removing the line sitename but not the line siteurl There are full write permissions on the folder.

It looks like it is functioning but it doesn't actually delete the lines siteurl and sitename. start dat editing directory is ./Members files to process are ./Members/1.dat./Members/2.dat./Members/3.dat./Members/4.dat./Members/5.dat start file ./Members/1.dat write temp file /tmp/WFTaSsK1ga...

Thanks for your patience. This is the code and nothing happens: #!/usr/bin/perl use CGI::Carp fatalsToBrowser; # Global information: $theblahver = 16; $version = $versioncr = '10.3.6'; # Said Version; Copyright version $blanktarget = " target='_new'"; # Uncomment this for better time...

Sorry but no joy. I did change this: foreach $file (<*.dat>) { to this: foreach $file (<$members/*.dat>) { as this is the folder the .dat files are in.

I pasted it at the top of another script and when run it just gives a HTTP 500 error. I think I will need something more on the lines of: open(FILE,"$members/$_.dat"); while(<FILE>) { code code code close(FILE); } or something along those lines. Sorry for being so vague.
