Re: First time using Args

Hi.

A couple of other remarks:

• You go to a lot of trouble to validate and then open the input file given on the command line, but then you never actually read from the said file...

• You increment month by 1 in this line:
  $month = sprintf("%02d", $month+1);

  but, as you have already added 60 days, this will add a further 30 (or 31, or 28, or whatever).

• In fact, assuming that you don't want to increment month, that whole chunk of code (four lines) could be simplified to:
my $deadline = sprintf '%d-%02d-%02d 00:00:00', Add_Delta_Days( Today, 60 );

Ah,thanks for the tip on the date. I'm still making lots of newbish mistakes. Yeah, I don't validate the contents of the file itself...haven't thought about how I'd go about doing that yet. The script itself is far from finished, actually, but I've never validated the content of a file to check its format.
