actually I read it all carefully but it's complicated to interpret a page full of coding *theory* without any code *examples*...and English is actually not my best foreign language ...

>If you don't understand how "vars" works, then you should correct that, because it is really simple and occasionally useful.

well the perldoc says 

the "use vars" and "use subs" declarations are not BLOCK-scoped.  
They are thus effective for the entire file in which
they appear.

but actually - as I only found out by experimenting - it depends on the scope of "package" which confused me!

to make it clearer some code: 

 use strict;

$\="\n";
use vars qw($x);
$x="main";
{

    print $x;
    package one;
    use vars qw($x);
    $x="one";
    print $x;
}

print $x;
__END__
main
one
main

But where's the problem to import variables with our ??? Could you give me please a code example?

Cheers Rolf
