in reply to Flat File Question

Is there any chance that you could move the flat-file to, say, DBD::SQLite? This is a problem that could be solved very naturally by a relational database.

I wanted to explore how Perl's closures can be manipulated, and ended up creating an object system by accident.

    Hi Schemer, unfortunately no
      If a SQL approach would help, you can leave the flatfile as is and handle it with DBD::CSV or DBD::AnyData, without having to change your files at all.
