!= is for numeric comparison. Use ne for string comparison: if ($reason eq 'sale' && $method_of_payment ne 'Purchase Order') 'Visa' != 'Purchase Order' is FALSE, since both sides are numerically equivalent to zero. 'Visa' ne 'Purchase Order' is TRUE Common boo-boo. Don't feel bad. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
