Wow, you guys are great! My Perl script is now only 10 lines, and works as I wanted it to. I'll need to add some error handling later, it outputs a -1 if the number has already been converted. A small thing that won't mess up my plans. (With regards to "simple padding of IP addresses")

My next script is importing an array, 4 deep, unspecified legnth. After doing this, I need to compare a different list to my hash table, and see if my number is between $ip and the second cell which is $ip2. I'm doing something wrong though. It's not working.

Thanks,
Carrie
