having file handler PO. I guess you mean file handle, not file handler. A file handler is something different. As for your question: To use your output file later on as an input file, you have two options to choose from: - Close the output file, then reopen it as input file. - Initially create the output file for "read and write", and use the tell()/seek() functions to reposition the file pointer. BTW, I suggest that you use a localized variable as a file handle, instead of a global handle, i.e. open(my $po, ...) This is not so important in your small example code, but can make things easier when your code gets more complicated.
