I admit I am a newbie and making this harder than it really is :)  But, I 
have a program that is growing by the minute and I want to split it apart 
into chunks or sub routines.

Here is an example:

sub init_type_99{
print NEWQUOTES "99";                           #RecordType
printf NEWQUOTES ("%08d", "1");         #FileBatchTotal
printf NEWQUOTES ("%08d", $count-1);            #TotalRecords
printf NEWQUOTES ("%-237s");                    #RecordFiller
print NEWQUOTES "\n";
}

Yet when I call the sub doing this:

init_type_99();
I do not get the results I was looking for.  Is it a bad idea to do a sub 
like this and reserve it to only return a value?

Thanks,

-Scott
