packetstormer has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Greetings!

Can anyone tell me if there is any easy way to access (drill down) to data contained in hashes of hashes and/or hashes or arrays of hashes etc? I have been using Data::Dumper, which is great but it is still difficult to get the syntax correct to pull out the elements needed

Is there a handy perl trick I am missing? It is taking me ages to get the simplest string!
