E-Blah Member Posts: 4 Posts Per Day: 0.00 Time Online: 19 minutes	Hello, I'm very new to Perl programming and I'm after a little help if possible. I am attempting to run a simple test script but when I try to run the script it opens the Perl interpreter for a split second then closes it straight away, any ideas where I'm going wrong ?. Many thanks in advance, Richard.

Hope that helps. Mike.

E-Blah Member Posts: 4 Posts Per Day: 0.00 Time Online: 19 minutes	Hello, I am creating a script that requires the user to input a customer reference number (must be 4 digits) and their Surname (between 1 and 20 alphabetic characters), any ideas of the best way of verifying these fields ?, if the information input by the user doesn't meet the verification criteria I need the script to advise of the error and prompt for the same info to be entered again. Many thanks in advance, Richard.
