Hello everyone: First let me thank all of you who helped me to clearify the topic on fetch-> hashref() for perl dbi. Now I have a little problem. Which I am straggling thru for quite a while. I am trying to load the environment veriable from ./profile file and use some of the variables value when I do ( -e $filename) check for existence of a file. say for example: File name: /job2/job3/job4.$todaysdate Environment: $todaysdate looks like 030702 ...What I am curently doing is I am invoking my perl script from a shell script which loads the .profile environment and executes the perl script. In my perl script I am doing eval to capture it. I tested my environment varable with out the -e with ls -l it works but it takes a lot of time to finish. I was wondering does any one know how to tell perl to load the environment variable with the -e options. Keep in mind that I am quering the database and dynamically checking the existence of that file. thaks a lot omi PS. I have tried the use env; and begin function to load.
