SPUG: a s/// question.

[Jay Scherrer]

Hello Fellow SPUGERS,

I have been going around and around with trying to replace this string with a
blank line. Perhaps someone could give me a clue with s///?

The following string occurs three or four times in the files that I'm working
with. All I want to do is replace this string with a blank line. ## Constant
string needed to be stripped from file ##

name	last	chng	bid	ask	vol(H)	high	low	ahigh	alow		

####I have been trying this line nested with in a if ( .. ) range operator:

$Line =~ s/name	last	chng	bid	ask	vol(H)	high	low	ahigh	alow//;

This seems to work on the other headings that are shorter but it seems to
ignore this match.
Any suggestions?
