The second construct is not valid; the argument to "use" must be a bareword. It's not really possible to answer your question without knowing more details. I'm not clear about what's actually in mysub.pl. The general answer is that "use" is the preferred method for bringing in routines, and you should use proper module construction techniques for writing modules. See perldoc -q require for a comparison of the various methods available to you in Perl. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
