Sorry..got really swamped at doing other things at work, plus, had several days of snow delays

It gives me "Thread X terminated abnormally: Invalid value for shared scalar at S:\Reports\NotWorking\Stats5c.pl line 594, <DATA> line 335"

<\p>

It's probably a warning -- in that it doesn't outrightly die on me.

Which of course means the hash population which this is supposed to be changing is unpopulated when it returns...

In my 'fiddling' with Threads::Shared, I wongled together a means of doing a single variable and field combo

E.G. $$dataref{$variable}{"FieldName"}++;

which seemed to work...

I may have to, while not ideal, split the %data hash into 2 or 3 hashes -- one part for the shared pieces (using a split-able string single level hash) and one for the unshared portions. And presumably use split to re-merge the shared portions back.
