Thanks. I'll run it tonight to see if it works :) Although im generally interested in learning about databases such as mySQL etc. What would be a good place for someone to start if they wanted to learn about perl?

    I'm glad you got it going! As regards to a good starting source for learning perl, I couldn't help you. I've programmed in too many languages before moving to perl, so I just started working on other people's programs, constantly using the perldoc command to figure out what *this* or *that* means. (In fact, I still don't really know perl ... I've never built any OO stuff, and have written only one module so far in my 8 years with perl. But I've used a good few modules and OO bits from CPAN!
