Re^2: formatted hash problem

Kenneth, I printed off "How (Not) To Ask A Question" and "Writeup Formatting Tips" (quite a few pages!). I'll also try your code and get back to you. It may be next week as we're expecting quite a snow storm and I'll be leaving a little early. Thanks again!

There are plenty of printed documents on my desk that I could care less about. Read "How (Not) To Ask A Question" and meditate upon what it says - this is a monastery of sorts after all. Remember that this is a free service where people much more experienced in Perl than you or I offer their (literally) valuable advice and insight out of the kindness of their hearts. Before you ask your neighbor for help with a home improvement project, would you not contemplate the best way to implement it and probably do some basic ground work like clearing space? It sounds like you are getting dangerously close to being considered a bad neighbor, which does not bode well for when down the line you encounter more Perl challenges.	[reply]
