Just got my head around Perl OO yesterday (after a lengthy time away
from trying to figure it out, those O'Reilly books are great!) and I'm
trying to print to a FORMAT from a derived function.
I tried the obvious,
$self->{CUSTOMER_REPORT} = CUSTOMER_REPORT;
in the base constructor which didn't work (didn't think it would
though.) but I'd like to know if anyone knows a better way of using
formats other than including the file in each function, or making them
global variables. (Is that possible with formats even?)
Donncha.
