I see. That's fine then. I didn't know that you were using the package
name as a prefix to the subroutine name (DBConn::). In that case you
don't need to use the Exporter. You only need it if you want to use the
the subroutines as if they were in the current package (for example,
db1(), and not

It does the right connection (i.e. subroutine) from the DBConn package and I

and the calling script so maybe that makes a difference.
No, it doesn't. You can mix

I am probably going to go back and do a prop
It is okay to do something like that. However, you should not use the package
declaration on the top. If you do that, you will have to use the Exporter module
to export your subroutine names to your script when you say "use DBConn;"

I have broken out my DB connection calls into a small module. It isn't
anything fancy so it is basically:
package DBConn
use strict;
use warnings;
sub { # connection info for db1 }
sub { # connection info for db2 }
sub { # connection info for db3 }
1;
The question is do I go through the for
