in reply to Tying Complex Data Structures using dbmfilters

Perhaps DBM::Deep is the module you're looking for since it describes itself as A pure perl multi-level hash/array DBM, and rather conveniently has a tie interface.

    That actually solves my problem perfectly; unfortunately installing CPAN modules is not an option. Fortunately this does not have to be extremely robust or speedy, just correct, and, if possible, easy to use (for my sake). :-)

      DBM::Deep is pure-Perl, so installation issues do not apply. You just need to copy the source somewhere accessible.

        My apologies; I did not clearly state the issue. It's not for technical reasons that I cannot use CPAN modules; it's more of a political thing.
