Can someone tell me what this code is doing? I am new at Perl and am totally lost!
I need this to use the customerNumber from the form and read a database to get information and display it until there is no more information for that number. In the database, there are mulitple rows of information for one customer.
When I run this I get nothing. Why?....
while ($CustomerNumber = $Data{"CustomerNumber"}) {
$db->Sql("SELECT * FROM Cust_act_da WHERE CustomerNumber = $C
+ustomerNumber AND #TransType = P");
$db->FetchRow();
($TransDate, $TransPmtAmt) = $db->Data("TransDate", "TransPmt
+Amt");
$FormatTransDate = substr($TransDate, 0, 10);
$FormatTransPmtAmt = sprintf("\$%.2f", $TransPmtAmt);
print $FormatTransDate;
print " ";
print $FormatTransPmtAmt;
}
