in thread Transferring hash keys to array... Need help sorting

Of course you can manipulate the data. For example:

foreach my $record (values %$HoH) { $record->{label} =~ tr/A-Za-z/N-ZA-Mn-za-m/; }
Should perform the rot13 cryption on all the label fields. See perlop for =~, tr, etc.

    I'm a little new to Perl (clearly) and this makes things much easier... My use of arrays was pointless. I'm just going to copy and paste all the code manipulating the arrays and operate on the hash. Thanks
