"Garbage errors" isn't terribly descriptive. What are the actual errors you are receiving? What exact version of Perl are you using, perl -V will show, and on what exact platforms. Do you have adequate amounts of RAM in the system? I've got libraries at well over 100,000 characters that work fine. http://danconia.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
