I use strict and warnings on both, is there a problem with that? I am not sure what undeclared variable you are talking about? $var1 and $var2 are declared earlier in the script and $openreturn is declared inline.

------------------------------

use strict;

use warnings;

use Win32::OLE;

use Win32::OLE::Variant;

use Date::Manip;

use base 'Exporter';

use vars qw($VERSION @EXPORT @EXPORT_OK);

($VERSION) = ' $Revision: 0.1 $ ' =~ /\$Revision:\s+(^\s+)/;

@EXPORT = qw( OpenNotes CloseNotes FetchNotesDoc Search FTSearch ); # Exported by Default

@EXPORT_OK = qw(); # Exported if Reference

rest of code

-----------------------------

use strict;

use warnings;

use Win32::OLE;

use Win32::OLE::Variant;

use NotesOLE;

Bunch of variable stuff

my $openreturn = OpenNotes($dbname,$server);

Rest of code.

---------------------------

It is my understanding that if you use base 'Exporter'; you don't have to declare @ISA in vars, I tried both and had no success!

Tried Export(..) with use Module and Export_ok(…) with use Module qw(sub);

Thanks for the response.
