in thread Help with passing through a package...

I am using the full name, do you know why it is not passing through? I am very stumped with this one. I am trying to declare one table to use throughout a larger set of programs, it is not only about passing through one variable, this is merely the tip of the iceberg. please help me if you can.

    I meant use that using fullname in XPCONF2.pm (and not my or anything else) was one option; I wasn't (purposely) suggesting that you'd need to change what's in your main script. What you are doing now in the .pm file is referring to a seperate variable declared with my when you do the assignment.
      I really appreciate your help, but could you help me to understand what you are saying. Are you saying that I should use X2PCONF::Num_OF... in X2PCONF.pm? I am sorry I am quite confused on this one.
        I'm saying you can do that OR you can declare $Num_OF... in X2PCONF.pm with use vars OR you can declare it with our in X2PCONF.pm. (Note that the last option requires perl version 5.6 or greater.)
