Larry, Actually, that's precisely what I'm after. All of the text should be read-only. It's meant to be used by pharmacies, and not edited. However, I'm not much of a perl person- preferring C++ myself, but I would appreciate your perl source, if you could provide it. I would appreciate any help you could provide!
