dynamic/concatenate variable 1

[egrant]

Hi All,

I have been researching on this forever and can't find an answer.

I need to rename my variable depending on what my counter value is for each total in my query array. For instance I would like a unique Total for each record so I can refer to all the records once I am out of the array. Something like;

while (@RowDetails = $RowDetails_sth->fetchrow_array())
{
Counter ++
$Total_$Counter = $RowDetails[0]
}
...

print $Total_1
print $Total_2
print $Total_3
etc...

This is not working for me and I totally lost on how to do it. Any help or pointing in the right direction would be much appreciated!

Thanks,

E

woops that should be

$Counter ++

in my array...

Why not put this into an array instead?

my @totals;
my $counter = 0;

while (@RowDetails = $RowDetails_sth->fetchrow_array())
{
   $total[$counter] = $RowDetails[0];
   $counter++;
}
...

foreach $total (@totals)
{
    print "$total";
}
