it's just a more compact way of showing the structure

try this

use Data::Dumper;

# VERSION 1
my $ref_1;

$ref_1->{'1'}->{'test1'}->{'key1'} = '1';
$ref_1->{'1'}->{'test1'}->{'key2'} = '2';
$ref_1->{'1'}->{'test1'}->{'key3'} = '3';
$ref_1->{'1'}->{'test2'}->{'key1'} = '4';
$ref_1->{'1'}->{'test2'}->{'key2'} = '5';
$ref_1->{'1'}->{'test2'}->{'key3'} = '6';

$ref_1->{'2'}->{'test1'}->{'key1'} = '1';
$ref_1->{'2'}->{'test1'}->{'key2'} = '2';
$ref_1->{'2'}->{'test1'}->{'key3'} = '3';
$ref_1->{'2'}->{'test2'}->{'key1'} = '4';
$ref_1->{'2'}->{'test2'}->{'key2'} = '5';
$ref_1->{'2'}->{'test2'}->{'key3'} = '6';

foreach my $b1 (keys %{$ref_1->{'1'}}) {
    if(exists $ref_1->{'2'}->{$b1}) {
        $ref_1->{'2'}->{$b1}->{'1'} = $ref_1->{'1'}->{$b1};
    }
}

$Data::Dumper::Deepcopy=1;
print Dumper $ref_1;

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
