TIMTOWTDI. There is more than one way to do it. The question first becomes how specific is the string. Do you only want to know how to do it with your example string or is the actual string somewhat variable? For example: use strict; use warnings; use Data::Dumper; my $string = '[a b c d]'; my @results = $string =~ /(\w)/g; print Dumper \@results; Match a single word-character and capture it; do this globally throughout the string, and store all of the captured results in an array. -- Brandon McCaig <http://www.bamccaig.com/> <bamcc...@gmail.com> V zrna gur orfg jvgu jung V fnl.
