sherab there seems to be a HUGE mismatch between what you describe and what we understand. We are using the same words, but seem to mean different things by them. See I know what I mean. Why don't you? then reconsider your question. Then:

  1. Frame your question around some code that is as near your real problem as you can make it using just a few lines of code and a small amount of data.
  2. Show us the output you get.
  3. Show us the output you want.

Don't tell us what you think is happening because that hasn't seemed to help anyone.

Perl is the programming world's equivalent of English
