Ok thanks for replying! I have owned Programming Perl for quite some time now and although I have not read it from front to back, I have read most of it. Perl Best practices is another book I refer to from time-2-time. Learning Perl I read years ago, but now the nice folks at Stonehenge came out with Intermediate Perl and now they will be releasing Mastering Perl. I thought it was a nice transition from Learning to Programming so are these 2 new books really necessary? Intermediate Perl did not get that great of reviews from amazon.com ciao derek :) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
