Ok, Work!

last question ... (and many thanks if you have a little time to spend
for me)

if I want convert this format into if/else statement.... like this:

$str="aa bb cc dd"
if ($str =~ /.*(\bb|dd)\b/i)
{
        print "***\nYes, Match!\n***\n";
}
else
{
        print "Non match!\n";
}

It's possible? .. (I am not a perl guru, then I do not how to convert
the previous format in this newer) ....

Thanks.
