in reply to hashes

is there a reason you can't just do 
foreach $value3 (keys %import_values) {
     print TEMP ("\"$value3\",");
}

i've never seen anyone use that hash construct you've got in the foreach, but i'm a relative newbie...

    i need the values to be printed out in that exact order, and if i didn't specify the keys they would be random..

      print OUT $hash{key1};
print OUT $hash{key2};
etc...

      If you want them in a specific order, use them in that specific order. Or do something like:

      my @keys = ('one', 'two', 'three');
for (@keys) {
    print OUT $hash{$_};
}

      Then, you have already predetermined your order, and can add/change it at any time.
