Help with determining EOF w/readline? 1

[BobMCT]

I am trying to read two files using readline(filehandle) and match on a common key.
My problem is that I am not properly detecting EOF on the files. Accord to pod the readline on end of file returns a null string (i.e.: $_ eq "")

I can find no other technique. Can someone please enlighten me as to the proper technique?

In the meantime I will keep searching.

Thanks

Hi

Neither the [tt]eof[/tt] function helps you ?

Thank you Feherke;

I totally overlooked that function. Sometimes the brain works in strange ways.

Thanks again.
