&lt;I&gt;&amp;gt;  To get out of the Use of uninitialized value I started adding the $blah AND $blah ... ... which is when I got totally caught up in this.&lt;/I&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;P&gt;

IMHO thats wrong!&lt;P&gt;&lt;P&gt;

Initialize a value, preferably  at the moment where those variables are declared.&lt;P&gt;&lt;P&gt;

Either "" or 0 depending on the way it's used in the line where you got the warning from.&lt;P&gt;&lt;P&gt;

E.g. &lt;P&gt;&lt;P&gt;

&lt;c&gt;
  DB&lt;115&gt; use warnings; print " $z bla"
Use of uninitialized value $z in concatenation (.) or string at (eval 39)[multi_perl5db.pl:644] line 2.
&lt;/c&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;P&gt;

Most likely means that $z is a string, so change &lt;c&gt;my $z&lt;/c&gt; to &lt;c&gt;my $z=""&lt;/c&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;P&gt;
