This is wonderful, however, I forgot that my data structure is setup as follows:

my $Rec = [ 
                          
                             {PWD=>posts_outside_pwd($rec->[5])},
                             {SECTION=>$rec->[14]},
                             {ORG_LEVEL_DESCRIP=>$rec->[10]},
                             {GRADE=>strip_hyphen($rec->[15])},
                             {POSITION=>$rec->[2]},
                             {NAME=>invert_name($rec->[16])},
                             {AGE=>convert_date_to_age(trim($rec->[17]
+))},
                             {DATE_OF_BIRTH=>date_of_birth_cleansed($r
+ec->[17])},
                             {COUNTRY=>$rec->[19]},
                             {FEMALE=>female_staff($rec->[18])},
                             {VACANT=>vacant_post_yellow_background($r
+ec->[16])},
                             {GRADE_NUMS=>map{++$positions{$_}}$rec->[
+15]." ".$rec->[16]." ".$rec->[2]},
                
                             
           ];
            

            push @{$AG{$rec->[10]}},$Rec;


$VAR1 = 'BERF - Office of Director';
$VAR2 = [
          [
          
            {
              'SECTION' => 'BERF'
            },

              'GRADE' => 'D1'
            },
            {
              'POSITION' => 'DIRECTOR'
            },
            {
              'NAME' => 'D. Fool'
            },
           
          ];

Each group of staff members is under a group as seen in $VAR1. This line reports an error now:

push @{ $grades{$_->{GRADE}}{$_->{POSITION}} }, $_->{NAME} for @$AG;
#How do I refer @$AG as it is a hash of hashes???

Thanks again.
