This looks closer to what I was refering to. But I
didn't even know you could do this. I've been away
from this thread a couple of days mulling over
'perlref' and 'perlreftut'.
I've also picked up a copy of "Learning Perl Objects,
References & Modules". Hey, I just recently discovered
this book was out there. I think I'd better go through
this material and what you've given me above, before I
proceed any futher with this thread.
Thanks, everybody, for your help; and especially
Gunnar. I'll be back with other questions regarding
references after I've done further homework. :)
Ron
