Also if it would help you could do :

if(!exists $catagories{$ccid}) { .... }
Which is saying if the key $ccid does *not* exist in the hash catagories then { ...}
Were as the first one was saying
If the key does exist in the hash ctatgories the { .... }

Right, or instead of :
        $myID = $categories{$ccid};
        print $myID;
You could just do :
        print $categories{$ccid};
Or otherwse just use $categories{$ccid} where you would want to use $myID
And save a step or two.

Isn't perl fun?!
