Re^6: Problem with DBM hash of anonymous arrays

Ah, cheers. I think I have it straight in my head now :-) I can get it to work with an ordinary hash table now, just not the DBM hash! Always problems!

Oh yes, I forgot about that :-) I think can't story anything but strings in dbm values, and they're usually of limited length too. You might be better off using DBM::Deep "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"	[reply]

It looks like you're right - thanks! If only I knew how to implement it with DBM::Deep. Hopefully I'll pick it up fairly quickly...	[reply]
