I have the following hash of hashes:
my %switch_hash = (
chrdex => {
DEX => {
'01-AUG-02' => 1,
'03-AUG-02' => 3,
}
},
uslcgb5e2sm =>{
Greensboro => {
'4-AUG-02' => 1,
'6-AUG-02' => 2,
}
},
uslecat25e1 => {
'Atlanta II' => {
'1-AUG-02' => 1,
'2-AUG-02' => 3,
'3-AUG-02' => 1,
'4-AUG-02' => .25,
}
},
);
$rhent = \%switch_hash;
I want to do this:
my @dates = ( keys %{(keys %{(keys %$rhent)})} );
and I get this error:
Can't use string ("3") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at ./x
+cl3.pl line 301
Can something like this be done to get the key containing the date from the final hash?
NOTE: There is a reason for using a reference, but that is beyond the scope of this question.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
