Good afternoon,
I have a text file that is created on the fly, and it is scanned for a certain pattern as it is created.
One of our co-workers, who has since left, wrote a small script to do this.
If it sees a line that begins with a A, then it looks for a pattern that has DN7xxx where xxx is supposed to be any digit.
Then it compares the 7 digit number at the end of the line to a CSV file. If the number is in the CSV, it shoots an email off to a distribution list, and ftp a file off to somewhere else.
We need to modify this so that it it also looks for numbers that begin with 15xx and 16xx. (where xx can be any digit)
A friend who is good with Perl told me to replace the line:
with
and
with
This second statement is Line 31
However, this will generate an error:
I found that if I added a / to the second statement so that it was thus:
It would compile, but it wouldn't work.
Would someone mind telling me what I'm doing wrong?
I'm attaching the complete modified script, minus the slash's:
