Hi all
I developed the code
Code:
use Config::Simple;
  
$config = new Config::Simple();
$config->read('new.cfg'); #read the confg file

$line1 = $config->param("head.line1");
$line3 = $config->param(head.line3);
$outfile = $
config->param("parms.empgroup");

print  "$line1 \n $line3 \n $outfile \n";

For the $line1 and $line2 i get the correct result but for the
$outfile i get the reffrence of the array. The output i get is as follow

Care and its affiliate
Quarterly Report Period Dates:
ARRAY(0x1c0cb5c)

But for the array reference i should get
0123,4567

Please help me about this matter.
