in reply to Open to and save from same file in CGI

One thing that I noticed right away was that you are opening SAVE for the read and the write. If they work independant of each other, then rename one of them. For example you could change the write/save (second one) like:
open SAVEOut,">/tmp/report.sav"; $page->save(\*SAVEOut); close(SAVEOut);
This is a shot in the dark, but I've seen stranger things happen. You'll notice in ColtsFoot's reply that there was an open IN and open OUT. I suggest you find a naming convention along those lines. BTW: Also I agree with Chady, a bit more information would be helpful. Since this is a shot in the dark, I might be completely off base and leading you astray.
Either way, good luck and keep us informed.
