Yes, @data is just an array not an array of arrays. Does this do what you want?
# CODE START # my @data; while (<MYFILE>) { my @info = split; push (@data, ["$info[0] $info[1]", @info[2..$#info]]); } # CODE END #
I'll change my code to see. But it certainly looks complicated.
Thanks for the pointers..
You might also want to take a look at the Data::Dumper module to make sure your array of arrays is formed correctly.
