And if you are going to write anything that will take more than about half a page, do a search on CPAN and you will likely find it is already done as a module with examples of how you write your one line with the parameters to invoke it. For those advocating other languages, please provide the equivalent location of a repository of available code. Java might be getting close in terms of available library and database connector code, but I don't think there is a centralized way to find anything. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
