I've got one program that generates a hash and then uses Data::Dump to write this structure to a text file:
printf FILE Data::Dumper->Dump(\%fields],['fields']);

Data::Dump isn't meant to be used like that. Use Storable instead:

Much easier to use, and it works. :)
When I'm able to re-write the entire system I'll look at that. :-)
For now I'm saddled with making the "eval" work ... unless I can figure out the magic of the "use vars" piece I'll have to manually touch up the first line of the output file.
Thanks,
Dan
