Hi Ken,

Thanks for the reply! I was a little vague for two reasons:

1. I am kind of new to my current job and I am not sure what my current employer would be OK w/my posting and not posting. So as I work through it I may post small chunks for help.

2. Because I am new I figured (right or wrong) I need to do a massive amount of reading and learning so that I know better what I am doing and can ask better questions here.

Thanks for the links I will dutifully go through those this weekend. Also, I have purchased used copies of "Learning Perl" (4th ed.) and "Mastering Perl" and I am slowly working my way through those.

Thanks again for your help...I am sure there will be more questions to come! :)

Sincerely,

Craigbert

  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
