Thanks for your quick reply ahmad diab. Smilie

But, files selecting start and end dates are commandline parameters to the programme.

Code:
my $startdate  = $ARGV[0];
my $enddate  = $ARGV[1];

my @files = </test/ganap/abc_*.csv>; #current approach, which is wrong.
foreach my $inputfilename (@files) {
   open( my $in_fh, "<", $inputfilename ) or die "Can't open $inputfilename : $!";
#.......................... file processing
}
close($in_fh);

So, I need help to modify my script Smilie

NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::ProhibitExplicitStdin - Use "<>" or "<ARGV>" or a prompting module instead of "<STDIN>". AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. DESCRIPTION
Perl has a useful magic filehandle called *ARGV that checks the command line and if there are any arguments, opens and reads those as files. If there are no arguments, *ARGV behaves like *STDIN instead. This behavior is almost always what you want if you want to create a program that reads from "STDIN". This is often written in one of the following two equivalent forms: while (<ARGV>) { # ... do something with each input line ... } # or, equivalently: while (<>) { # ... do something with each input line ... } If you want to prompt for user input, try special purpose modules like IO::Prompt. CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options. CAVEATS
Due to a bug in the current version of PPI (v1.119_03) and earlier, the readline operator is often misinterpreted as less-than and greater- than operators after a comma. Therefore, this policy misses important cases like my $content = join '', <STDIN>; because it interprets that line as the nonsensical statement: my $content = join '', < STDIN >; When that PPI bug is fixed, this policy should start catching those violations automatically.
