Hello Perl Monks, I have a problem with the Config::IniFiles module that i am using. I have an ini file which has to be read section by section; and i have written a small perl code for the same using this module. 
!/usr/bin/perl
  use Config::IniFiles;
  my $cfg = new Config::IniFiles( -file => "C:/test.ini" );
#Retrieves all the sections in the ini file.
@secs=   $cfg->Sections();
foreach $i (@secs)
{
    #Retreives all parameters in the section
        @params = $cfg->Parameters($i);
        #For each parameter in a particular section print #out the val
+ue
    callme (@params,$i);
}
sub callme
{
    @params = @_;
    $sec = $_;
    foreach $i (@params)
    {
        chomp($i);
            chomp($sec);
#This below statement is not printing out the values.
        print $cfg->val ($sec , $i);
    }

}

The statement $cfg->val ($sec , $i); does not print out the value; However on using 
print $cfg->val(Section1,Color)

i.e directly specifying the section value and the parameter value the values for the same are getting printed but the same not working if variable names are used. Could you please help me solve this problem. Thanks, Nisha
