Hi Mel, Since your two scripts were developoed separately, you might want to add use strict; to emailtest.pl, and work on that until it compiles cleanly. These errors indicate that you are not declaring your variables properly. Once that script compiles cleanly, you could integrate the code from renamerr.pl into it. I would say that you are also pushing the limits of what you can sensibly do with scripting. If you wish to be able to develop complicated processes, you should really learn how to write subroutines and functions. perldoc perlsub perldoc perlref perldoc perlreftut Hint: If the code in renamer was properly packaged within functions, you would not have to cut and paste code. You could use renamer as a module, and call functions from it in other scripts. Joseph -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
