im using Date::Manip to convert dates and times eg 2007:08:02 12:23 to allow me to sort them, which it does . but I cant see how to get the number back into a human -readable format
print scalar localtime($var{STARTTIME}); prints the long string . is there a better way to get just the bits I want , or do I have to parse the string I get from print scalar localtime output ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
