Davidj, Thank you for fixing the code. It does work in fact. I only had to add "use Data::Dumper" for it to work without errors, which I am assuming was added for debugging purposes. Thank you for alerting me to the array of labels I should have used. The original code compiled just fine on my Windows machine, even though I am using use strict. I believe it has to do with my IDE (PerlBuilder) which does not throw errors sometimes. I really appreciate your help.
