Hi Perl GURU's,
        In my Perl script, I read a text file and parse each line
delimited by the first "=" character and create environment variables
for each line of data. My question is: is there a way to expand the
environment variable when trying to assign an environment variable value
as part of the line of data?


Example:
Text file example:
DB_ID="tst"
#
#
MODIFIED_TIME=-3:0:0:0
#
CREATEDINQUALIFIER=created_in=$ENV{'LOCAL_DB_ID'}


$ENV{'CREATEDINQUALIFIER'} gives me "created_in=$ENV{'LOCAL_DB_ID'}"
value. I'll like it to receive the following value "created_in=tst"; 

Any suggestions?
