in thread How can I get a single record from Google Contacts based on a phone number?
I haven't tried anything so far because I literally had no idea where to start. I've been reading the page on WWW::Google::Contacts and it looks like this may be the tool I need. My only mental hurdle will be figuring out how to use it effectively. Also, the REGEX is a huge help, I was never any good at those.
As far as my experience level, in many respects I'm a rank beginner. I had some very brief exposure to Perl several years ago but I am old enough (don't ask, but I'm old enough to remember when a pe(a)rl was something dropped into a bottle of Prell shampoo in TV commercials) where if I haven't done something in the last week or two, the memory of how to do it fades quickly. I wrote a few very short programs back then to do small tasks and I am actually still using a couple of them, and this is another of those small tasks I was hoping Perl might be well suited for. So thanks for giving me a push in the right direction; it may take me a few days to figure it all out but at least now I have something to work with!
