Re: how can i use one handle for multifple files

in reply to how can i use one handle for multifple files

Yep, you can keep a filehandle in a scalar at any time:

open my $fh1,'<', $file1 or die ...;
open my $fh2,'<', $file2 or die ...;

my $fh = $fh1;

print $fh ...;

if( some_condition ){
$fh = $fh2;
}

print $fh ....

close $fh1;
close $fh2;
