For testing purposes, break it down: print my $public = $fields{'public'} ."\n"; print my $sev = $fields{'sev'}; ... print my $panicstr = $fields{'panicstr'}; # could the lack of quotes on this key have led to # the illegal seek? Anyway, taking each key as a variable and printing them out should help isolate just which seek it is choking on--if this is indeed the code that is causing the problem.
