Hi, I have two hashes, both of which result from a MYSQL query. The first hash, for example, looks like this:
$cat = ('username' => 'Drew', 'password' => 'Boy');
The hash above came from a bigger set of hashes that came from a mysql query that was split. This is assuming that the query had many results.

There is another mysql query that results to a hash (let's call it $results) containing several smaller sets of hashes. A sample 'smaller hash' from this query would look like:

$link = ('Name' => 'Andy', 'PW' => 'Girl');
My question is, how can I insert the first sample hash ($cat) to $results and at the same time change the names of the keys to 'Name' and 'PW' in place of 'username' and 'password'? Any help will be very much appreciated.
