hi i have a recordfile consisting of a hash of hashes of arrays.
i would like to print the records based on a search agianst the content of the arrays. im trying something like this, but its not working. im not good at dereferencing stuff. so $regex is the REGEX string by which i search. $search item is the secondary hash key $records is my records print grep { grep /$regex/i, @{ $_->{ $search_item } } } ${ $records }; any ideas? martin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
