Doesn't work. Just moves error to line 11, from line 10, he he. FYI, I
cannot run the *.pl script from the command line, because bash complains
it can't find it, even when I know good and well I'm in the correct
directory. Maybe my path is messed up? Therefore, I have been running
"perl blahblah.pl -file pathtofilename. Any help for you there? Mark

Ahh.  Try adding this line:

use lib "usr/local/koha/intranet/modules";

just before the other "use" statements in the script.  (IIRC, you need
to run the script as root, too.)
