 So you should now be able to retrieve the whole result set as a
 reference to an array containing references to arrays. And I hope
 that my ramblings explained a bit how you can use that reference to
 get to the underlying values. If you combine all of that I think
 you'll be able to work out the way to get your program to work the
 way you want it to.


FWIW, I found your ramblings quite helpful, since I am working to get more comfortable with variables, arrays, and references, on my way to learning objects.

Coming from a basic understanding of C, the reference variable concept sounds a lot like pointers in C. But, my "Learning Perl" and "Intermediate Perl" books do not use that terminology. Am I on a correct path to understanding by making this analogy?

Thanks,
Brian
