Thanks for the help guys. I have solved the problem. It's a metacharacter in one of the files that stops the program.
Dave, here is the whole message:
Unmatched ) in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/LLP) <-- HERE \s*(\w+\s*
+(\d\d|\d),\s*\d{4})\s*$/ at D:\files\test2.pl line 88, <FILE> chunk 1

Here is the error message I see when it stops
Unmatched ) in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/LLP) <-- HERE \s*(\w+\s*
+(\d\d|\d),\s*\d{4})\s*($|except|\()/
any thoughts? | [reply]

My thought: that your error report just muddies the water. We can't even tell what the whole line is; much less, its context in your code -- of which you appear to have posted only a fragment and then deleted that.
It's really hard to offer much help when the helpee obstructs the process.
FWIW, I captured the following (less the shebang and node number) from the a mirror of the node you deleted ... but it doesn't compile, and the failure reported (as might be expected for a fragment) is for syntax errors other than the missing close_paren in line 69 (as displayed).

At this point, /me notes that *whatever* the full script looks like, it should never have compiled, and thus, never have processed nearly 7k files, with the regex error. | [reply]
