perl find and replace

Hi,

Please could someone advise, how I can resolve this issue with my find and replace command :

perl -i -npe "s#RLM_LICENSE.*#RLM_LICENSE=$TEAM_TOP/licenses/abc.demo.lic#;" environment.properties

$TEAM_TOP is an environment varible within my system.

when i run this perl command from a script and check the environment.properties file. It displays the full path of $TEAM_TOP

e.g.

RLM_LICENSE=/team/dev6/data/REL1_TOP/licenses/abc.demo.lic

and

I would need it to show this instead :

RLM_LICENSE=$TEAM/licenses/abc.demo.lic

thank you
