I just look at my manipulate.pm file and it says:

          ($trans,$message)=&rt::change_date_due($serial_num, $date_due, $curren
t_user);

I am confused about your "change_due_date" vs my "change_date_due"

It seems this is a very easy mistake ;-)

Well how long it took you is not really that important. You did it!
Plus this is free software and a very good package.  Your find about
reverse of variable name is good.

Like?  What are they? Examples?
