So, I was quite frustrated with this easy looking task bugging me for the whole day long. I really appreciate everyone who responded.
Finaly I ended up using Text::CSV perl module and then calling each of the CSV field as array reference. There was no need left to run the chomp after using Text::CSV.
Here is the code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Text::CSV;
my $csv = Text::CSV->new ( { binary => 1 } ) # should set binary attr
+ibute.
or die "Cannot use CSV: ".Text::CSV->error_diag ();
open my $fh, "<:encoding(utf8)", "vm.csv" or die "vm.csv: $!";
<$fh>; ## this is to remove the column headers.
while ( my $row = $csv->getline ($fh) )
{
print $row->[1];
}
and here is hte output:
fd1fd2fd3fd4
Later i was pulled these individual values and inserted into the DB.
Thanks everyone.
