could someone plz tell me how i would go about adding extra fields and changing names of the defualt fields? maybe i've over looked them, but i can't seem to find the list of arrays in the scripts... i'm use to adding the arrays in a subroutine to match the fields... {{ if someone would let me know where all i gotta edit the script to add 1 more field example=(field10 => [10, 'alpha', -2, 15, 0, '', '']
);

i can go from there lol tx a bunch in advance i'm into my 4th week of studying perl any help would be greatly appreciated :))

Hi tcoReDNeck,

You might want to wizz by the DBMAN CONFIGURATOR at this URL:

http://www.jpdeni.com/dbman/

You can use it to define your fields (and a lot more) and then copy the resulting txt into your dbman files.

Kind regards
