Re^4: Looking up elements of an array in another array!

Hi Anonymous Monk,

after playing around a little with different scripts, and learning about the use of modules in perl, I added a line into your script to achieve my aim of creating a file importer.

The job is almost done.

It works fine, if I create the text file 'indexDS.txt' via perl. The problem I couldn't solve, is that, as soon as I change the text file by opening with notepad (windows), it crashes. I tried to implement ':encoding(utf8)'. Without success.

At least I managed to parse the original excel file (with all the IDs in the first coloumn) and convert it into a text file using encoding(utf8). But this converted text file doesn't work with this script. Anyhow, I am sure, it would be much nicer, if I could parse the CVS file directly into that script

But how?

Sorry, I can't get any further on my own.

P.S: This is what I added to your script

 
use File::Basename;
use File::Copy;
...
...
...
...
my $dirTarget = '/cygdrive/d/tmp/';
copy ($_, $dirTarget.basename ("$_")) for (@fnames);
