in thread How to make it work when "use strict;" is on?

Whoops - in my reply, I gave you the wrong variable names to declare to Perl. You already declare $spud and @spud, but if you want to also use $potato and @potato, you need to also declare theses as global variables. You're using our, so you should declare:

our $potato;
our @potato;

This will allow the two names to be used.

    It works, thanks! 
    #!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;

our $spud="Wow!";
our @spud=qw(idaho russet);
our($potato,@potato);
*potato=*spud;
print $potato;
print "@potato"
