Pattern matching in Perl issue

Hello all,

I have written a perl script which searched for a file in a folder, and return the value found or not found.

The file that we are getting is a weekly file and everyweek, the date changes.

So for this i have written a file pattern matching script, but i am not getting the result.

The file is present in the folder mentioned, but it returns the result as "File not found".

Is the file pattern matching correct that i have used?
Code:
$filepattern = '.*A0PD7193.*DMECBID.SUPL.*\.txt';

The file name is
Code:
DMEP.A0PD7193.DMECBID.SUPL.2011042981697.txt

WEEKLY(5)						      BSD File Formats Manual							 WEEKLY(5)

NAME
weekly, weekly.conf -- weekly maintenance DESCRIPTION
The /etc/weekly script is run, by default, every Saturday morning on a NetBSD system. The /etc/weekly.conf file specifies which of the stan- dard weekly services are performed. The variables described below can be set to ``YES'' or ``NO'' in the /etc/weekly.conf file. The default settings are in the /etc/defaults/weekly.conf file. (Note that you should never edit /etc/defaults/weekly.conf directly, as it is often replaced during system upgrades.) rebuild_locatedb This rebuilds the locate(1) database, /var/db/locate.database, which must also exist, in order to be rebuilt. rebuild_mandb This rebuilds the apropos(1) database /var/db/man.db, using makemandb(8) with the -f option. rebuild_whatisdb This rebuilds the whatis(1) database(s). Note that NetBSD provides a default whatis.db for the system manual pages and this may not be needed. (Adjust your /etc/man.conf as necessary; see man.conf(5) for details.) FILES
