If else statement w/ glob

[komark]

Hi,
I am not able to get the correct values when I am running this script below. Basically I am putting writing everything in an array into a file 'file.txt'. Then foreach line in the file I am trying to find the file in the directory /home/omar

open (DAT, "file.txt");
@newFiles = <DAT>;

foreach $newfile (@newFiles)

{
chomp $newfile;

my $smsdir = "/home/omar";

print "$newfile\n";

if ( glob ("$smsdir/*/*_$newfile*"))
{
$type = "YES";
}
else
{
$type = "NO";
}

print "$type\n";

I am getting some of the results correct and some false. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Omar.

Find my answer.

I had to use this at the top inorder for the glob function to work correctly.

use File::Glob ':glob';
