Hi, could any one help to debug this code plz thanks in advance

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
# load_bulkups.pl - create bulkup orders from a csv file
# the input file should be in the comma seperated, in the
# following format:
# site,vendor,sku(Stock Keeping Unit),forecast,qoh(Quantity on Hand),qoo(Quantiy on Order),buying_multiple,outl,demand,order
# if an order quantity is 0, it is assumed that that sku
# will not be ordered. each file will only contain one vendor.

How can we help you debug your script if we don't know what, if any errors you are getting? What are you expecting it to do? What in fact does it do? Asking someone to 'debug my script' is like asking someone to do your homework for you. What have YOU done to debug it?

it's probably those smilies in the code..... I don't think perl handles smilies too well...... ;)

Yes, what the heck are those any way? Why are they inserted at such a place?

the poster did not use the code tags so smilies get automatically inserted into the post.
