Re^2: Help with storing data in a hash

Well here's the dates:

my @dates = (
    '20080101', '20080102', '20080103', '20080104', '20080105', '20080
+106',
    '20080107', '20080108', '20080109', '20080110'
);

And for this specific procedure, it only wants one day. way the store procedure in the db is.

foreach my $d (@dates) {
    %calls = &call_type( $d, $d );
}

print Dumper \%calls;

I followed your second suggestion and that worked. I appreciate the help.

Aha - that's the important part! You're overwriting %calls each time you call that function. I added an example you can use to my answer above. A better solution would be to make call_type() accept a reference to %calls and add entries to it. -sam	[reply]

Hi hallikpapa You simply declare %calls in outside of the subroutine call_type like `my %calls; foreach my $d (@dates) { %calls = &call_type( $d, $d ); }` [download] Punitha	[reply] [d/l]
