Hi,

Yes the solution that you have mentioned for my specified problem is correct.
But if the position of sathya varies each time then how can we solve it???
Let me explain u the problem,\

Code:
kashyap kashyap manju suhas Narayanan Narayanan frank wall sathya

So these are the contents of the file1, Now consider that initially sathya is in the last position,
But when u use the file the second time the postion might change and the new position of sathya
would be the second or third or fourth, So what i mean to say is irrespective of positions of the word sathya , i want to add the contents of file2 one after the other next to sathya.......

A demo piece would be like this...
[CODE ]sathya manju kashyap Narayanan Narayanan Sathya sathya Narayanan [/CODE]
SO the contents of file2 are
Code:
XYZ1
XYZ2
XYZ3

Now i want the output like this,
Code:
 sathya XYZ1 manju kashyap  Narayanan Narayanan Sathya XYZ2 sathya XYZ3 Narayanan

The number of "sathya" in file1 will be equal to the strings present in file2.
I hope u have understood my problem.
I am trying to do this for the past 15 days and i am unable achieve it,
It would be very helpful if u solve this problem.

Thanks,
Kashyap.

locale::codes::langfam

Locale::Codes::LangFam(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				 Locale::Codes::LangFam(3)

NAME

       Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification

SYNOPSIS

	  use Locale::Codes::LangFam;

	  $lext = code2langfam('apa');		       # $lext gets 'Apache languages'
	  $code = langfam2code('Apache languages');    # $code gets 'apa'

	  @codes   = all_langfam_codes();
	  @names   = all_langfam_names();

DESCRIPTION

       The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in
       ISO 639-5.

       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5
       language family codes will be used.

SUPPORTED CODE SETS

       There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a
       constant that is automatically exported by this module.

       For example, the two are equivalent:

	  $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha');
	  $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA);

       The codesets currently supported are:

       alpha
	   This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages.

	   This is the default code set.

ROUTINES

       code2langfam ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       langfam2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
       langfam_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
       all_langfam_codes ( [CODESET] )
       all_langfam_names ( [CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangFam::rename_langfam  ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangFam::add_langfam  ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangFam::delete_langfam  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangFam::add_langfam_alias  ( NAME ,NEW_NAME )
       Locale::Codes::LangFam::delete_langfam_alias  ( NAME )
       Locale::Codes::LangFam::rename_langfam_code  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangFam::add_langfam_code_alias  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangFam::delete_langfam_code_alias  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
	   These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
