[rt-users] PErl question for RT Status values

[Ken Crocker]

Joop,

Nope. Didn't work. It looks like once I code "Set", it takes everything 
inside theinner paranthesis literally.

I suppose I /*COULD*/ go into RT_Config and change it back to the old 
syntax so my override in RT_SiteConfig would work. But I don't like that 
because I like to think of RT_Config as untouchable. A "local" version 
won't work either. I found it rather frustrating that there was no 
reference to the "Set" command in either of the books I looked at.  I'll 
try google next.
