Sorry you've found the time to get annoyed about this thread (and perhaps others). I am learning Perl very nicely thank you and if you research a bit more into my user history you will see that most of the tasks are all on the same topic (one which I've been toying with for quite some time by myself). Whenever I have fully solved the problem I have also acknowledged the help and reproduced full working code for other people whom may have had a similar problem to use.

As a new user of Perl I've had little to offer as of yet to other people's problems, as usually there are other users far more qualified to offer better solutions. "Challenges" and "Prizes" was simply to lighten up the topics a little, not to induce a false pretense into what I intended. I appreciate that altruism is major part of the functionality of this site and I do not intend to linger as a parasite for much longer. Furthermore, you don't have to reply to these threads. If you feel you would prefer not to offer support to a beginner then why not just not? Anyway, have a nice day and thanks again to everyone that has helped. All is working extremely well.
