Yes indeed, it has lots of good examples

> # grab quotes.quote 
>  my $categories=$quotes->category;               
> # this is really cool, because $categories 
> # can be used to get any of the data in the table categories. 
# which is why I give it the table name, not the column name. 
>  my $category_id=$categories->category;

Thanks, I will play with that tonight.

I used the hand-rolled method. I'm not knowledgeable enough yet to
know just how cool my code is; probably lukewarm ;-)
