[mplspm]: Ever heard of a routine called getColInfo()?

[Matt Johnson]

Hi Mark,
I’m not familiar with the module TblInfo.pm, but looking at the source code itself might give you a clue where it came from.  To find where the module named TblInfo.pm is, try this command at the command line.  (I’m assuming you have unix)

perl -e 'system("find " .  join(" ", at INC)  . " -name \"TblInfo.pm\" -print "); '

That should print out the path to the module.

   cheers,
  -Matt Johnson
