I had this problem just recently... What is it with this chaos clustering.. Check out 'Devel::Trace'. It allows you to put '-d:Trace' into your perl script, and an execution trace is dumped. you may have to get Devel::Trace from CPAN. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
