Note perl variables can contain HUGE (10MB,100MB etc.) amounts of data if you have the space space. It is all FREE from the perl CPAN under http://www.perl.org but you need ESQL/C on one machine to compile the shared library. -- # John Clutterbuck Tel: +44 1703 765021 # Siemens Business Services email: jclutterbuck@sbs.siemens.co.uk # Phi House, Enterprise Road # Chilworth, Hampshire, SO16 7NS
