Well, yeah, you never declared nor defined @value. What is that array
supposed to be?

????
You are confusing me. According to your sample data each line contains
IP, address, name, MAC and a whole jumbalaja of other stuff. Why are you
putting all of that into an array names @IP?

> foreach my $val (@IP) {
> $val = sprintf("%02x", $val);

And why are you trying to format the address, name, MAC, ... as hex
values?

What about EOF? Surely a line not terminated by a newline but followed
by an EOF has a valid ending.

Actually there are many people who would argue that a 'line' without a
trailing newline (EOL) isn't a line at all but garbage at the end of the
file after the end of the preceeding line.

You know what? My completely ugly script actually did what it was
supposed to. This was a one time shot and probably will not have to run
this again in the near future. So I think I will call off the hunt on
getting this going.

I'm VERY new at trying to use Perl. I've used other programing languages
before. But I'm definitely in my infancy at trying to understand.

If I post to this forum again, I will try to be more specific as not to
cause confusion.

Thanks to all who helped me as far as they did!!!
