Thanx for your help, I been over the OOP/OOD stuff for perl but it all works in a very similar why to java/C++ both of which I'm very familiar with. I still can't figure out how to retrieve the super class handle from within an eval block, but maybe it's not possible without hacking around inside perl? I think I will try a different approach for now and come back to this when there are no deadlines to be met :o) Thanx again for you help.
Hmmm...perhaps it is because Perl doesn't have a SUPER
class handle per se? When you come back to it I think it
may be helpful to write some code in Java or C++ that shows
what you want to do, and then ask how to accomplish that in
Perl.
