You might try the following: - create a packing list in the Admin Tool - read the Object via ars_GetContainer - print the resulting data structure with Data::Dumper - use the output as a template for your packing list
This should work because usually the structure for the ars_Create... functions is the same as returned from the ars_Get... functions. Here's a code snippet: my $packingList = ars_GetContainer( $ctrl, $packingListName ); die "ars_GetContainer($packingListName): $ars_errstr\n" if $ars_errstr; use Data::Dumper; print Data::Dumper->Dump( [$packingList], ['packingList'] ); Regards, Thilo Stapff LJ Longwing wrote: > Hey...I'm new to this list...so please go easy on me. > > ARS 7.1 Patch 2 > ARSPerl 1.90 > ActivePerl-5.8.8.819 > Windows 2003 > > I've been using ARSPerl for quite some time, but mainly the client > functions.
