in thread Xml File Reading from PERL

Hi,

If you run the new XML format via the example script I showed you it will output the new data structure.

I'm not going to do it for you however I am willing to help you. If you have problems with complex data structures I suggest you read the following The Perl Data Structures Cookbook

    <columnname>DATE_MODIFIED_ODS</columnname>
    </config> Here i am getting proper output if my $tblnm="OXF_SIC" but when i changed the code to my $tblnm="OXF_SUBSIDIARY" then its throwing the error as:- Can't use string ("DATE_MODIFIED_ODS") as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" in use at check2_Feb27.pl line 37.
