Thanks again Jim,
I am having a bit of trouble trying to implement your suggestions.
I am getting the following error:
Global symbol "%data" requires explicit package name at
C:\Users\cstinemetz\Documents\Perl\dev\headers.pl line 38.
Global symbol "%data" requires explicit package name at
C:\Users\cstinemetz\Documents\Perl\dev\headers.pl line 38.
I believe it is because (defined $data{$key} ? $data{$key} : '' ) is
for hash notation and not array.
I also kept the @header array because it contains all the elements
that I am expecting to be in the header.
Thanks again for your help.
It is greatly appreciated,
Chris
