This doesn't make sense to me: line 128: @result = $t->cmd($runSQL); line 129: $ordCnt = trim($result[16]);
sub trim($) { my $arg = shift; chomp($arg); $arg =~ s/^\s+//; $arg =~ s/\s+$//; return $arg; } $ perl -c conv.pl syntax error at conv.pl line 129, near "result[" conv.pl had compilation errors. "trim" works fine if I pass it a quoted literal such as '" 25 "'. Why won't it work with an element reference?! -Jeff __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
