in reply to "Global Symbol Requires Explicit Package Name" error

You declared 'header_data' as an array, but are using it as a hash (i.e., you need to change @header_data to %header_data).

Remember: There's always one more bug.

    jdhedden,
    Thank you very much, yes that is it. OK, so now I have a question. I did all of the reading on variables and I understand the use of my and "$" signs, but when do you use "@" or "%". Can you point me to an article for that? Thanks again.
