Opening Files and checking contents in Perl - Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi Era,

What would be the syntax if i need to match a term consisting of several words for example the term "MY PERSONAL FIILE".
I tried to use the below code but it didn;t work.
Can you help ?

Code:

if ( /MY PERSONAL FILE/ ) {
                       push (@arr_x, $summary_x)
                };

Contents for the file "true_sorts" is below.
Looks like if the term i want to match is not at the first line of the contents , then there won;t be any match.

Code:

MY PERSONAL FILE
