Search for string in a file then compare it with excel files entry
All,
i have a file text.log:
cover6
cover3
cover2
cover4
other file is abc.log as :
0
0
1
0
Then I have a excel file result.xls that contains:
Name Path Pass
cover2
cover3
cover6
cover4
Now I want to write a perl script that will check if 1st column and 2nd row of results.xls is equal to first string of text.log then, write 1st string of abc.log in 3rd column 1st row of result.xls i.e under Pass field.
example : Row 2 of result.xls contain cover2 but in text.log cover2 is in 3rd line. So, row2 3rd column of result.xls will contain string in 3rd line of abc.log i.e 1.
Similarly for all rows.
Regards,
Anamika

DESCRIPTION
The writelog script is used to write a log entry or send it as mail. The name parameter specifies the name of the log file where the entry
should be written. If it is the word ``mail'' then the entry is mailed to the news administrator, <USER specified with --with-news-mas-
ter at configure>. The data that is written or sent consists of the text given on the command line, followed by standard input indented by
four spaces. Shlock(1) is used to avoid simultaneous updates to a single log file.
