I have a hash of hashes which I converted to an array of hashes because I
needed to access them in a specific sequence. It now looks like
my @pagetypes=(
{'pagetype'=>'Delivery Note','weight'=>2,.....
{'pagetype'=>'Sales Invoice','weight'=>2,.....
{'pagetype'=>'Purchase Invoice','weight'=>2,.....
..........
I then access the array using
foreach my $pt (@pagetypes) {
However, I have now lost the ability to access each pagetype by it's name
I am aware that you cannot define a key sequence when defining a hash.
However, if I create a sequence field
my %pagetypes=(
'Delivery Note'=>{'seq'=>1,weight'=>2,.....
'Sales Invoice'=>{'seq'=>2,'weight'=>2,.....
'Purchase Invoice'=>{'seq'=>3,'weight'=>2,.....
..........
How can I do the foreach statement to access them in the correct sequence?
