Yeah. That's why my reply is a good third reply. As long as the scope of the problem stays this small and this specific, no need to bring out the big guns. In case it won't ... the sooner he learns databases and SQL, the better.

    Fair enough, DBI/SQL is certainly a good extra skill for a Perl programmer to have. I just don't want to overwhelm a guy who hasn't shown any Perl skills yet. This wouldn't exactly be trivial SQL, either, since it would require a combination of SUM, SUBSTR, and GROUP BY, at least.
