How to append records to a file using PERL

Hi All,

Great Forum and Great help. Keep up the good work.

My question is what is the command and it's syntax to append a record to an output file using PERL. Please provide the command syntax.

In regular shell you can use the '>>' to append.

Basically, I am creating a small report and I want to write the records out (Each record) to an output file, which I can then email.

Thanks
Nurani
