in thread Hash Question

Sorry, I wasn't clear, The hash reference is looking up values that match a column in a text file ($text11) I wanted to know if it was possible to match another column also e.g 14,15,17 etc and if there is a match in any of those columns then the results would be printed as opposed to just having the hash look up the one column ($text11) does that make more sense? Thank you
