I just got a copy of Intermediate Perl (the updated version of Learning
Perl Objects, References, and Modules, aka Alpaca) and started reading.

Perlers,
I've been researching Perl's support for CDO and found from a few
sources (namely ActiveState mailing list archives) that it's possible to
make a(n almost) one-to-one conversion of say, VBScript code to Perl
using Win32::OLE. Do any of you know of any decent references for CDO

Perlers,
I'm stumped; I have a script that should output to a file but it
doesn't. The file is created, but it's empty after the script
completes. To be sure I was getting some sort of output, I had the
script write to the terminal and all was well. The odd thing, however,

Perlers,
I'd like to use Net::DNS to verify that that my external name servers
are running DNS and returning the correct records. How does one specify
an alternate DNS server to use when querying?
I've Googled and RTFM but can't seem to find the answer. Is Net::DNS
appropriate? Or is the

Perlers,
I'm working on a script that will generate a listing of files on a
regular basis so that I can create hyperlinks to each respective file.
As you see from the sorted output below, though it is in ASCIIbetical

Perlers,
I'm working on a script that iterates over a log file looking for known
hosts so that their messages can be grouped in a summary report.
However, when I run the script, the array I create includes entries for
previous hosts that were found. I thought that I could empty the array
at the b

Sure, don't top-post. But then who's gonna bother to scroll to the end
of the email as the thread gets longer? Many users don't even realize
that there is a reply in bottom-posted emails. Bottom-posting ignores
the natural behavior of most users.

I'm (very) new to Perl but I thought there was an easier way to do this.
I use the '-w' switch when specifying my interpreter at the beginning of
my script:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
and it always tells me if I have a declared variable that doesn't get
used.
