Greetings! A few days back, I posted a message in which I asked for help figuring out why Perl was reporting that an array had one element when printing the array showed all 17 elements that it was supposed to have. I took a closer look at my entire application last night. I thought I had been reading information from a file line by line, splitting the line into an array, passing the array into a class via a subroutine, using another subroutine to get the array back out, and printing its contents. The problem was that when I was passing the array into the class, I was using "$_" as the argument instead of "@_".
I am now expanding one of my favorite sayings: "C++ gives you thousands of ways to shoot yourself in the foot. Visual Basic hides all the ways it shoots you in the foot. Perl doesn't care if you shoot yourself in the foot or not." RobR __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
