I wanted to "require" my dbman and links record formats from one file. I would like to know if any one knows of a problem with doing this so I do not have to update different files as they both use the same database and fields.
My other question is that I would like to know what the difference in between the &date and \&date in the field descriptions of links and dbman.
Date => [8, 'date', 15,15, 1, &get_date, ''],
_________
Date => [3, 'date', 15, 15, 1, \&get_date, ''],
Basically the question is, what does the "\" do for us in the latter.
