Hi Pamela,
Reply:
CPA> Im still having trouble. Will this work with Print MAIL as well?
You can't use sprintf inside double quotes in print, try this:
print MAIL 'You got R$ ' . sprintf("%.2f", $valor) . 'bucks!';
or you could try to use the printf command instead of print, but the
sintax is different, take a look at the the perlfunc doc:
$ perldoc perlfunc
but this will work for you:
printf MAIL "You got R\$ %.2f",$valor;
