Uh, why did you declare @a and then use %a here? @a{...} is a HASH slice of %a. @a[...] is an ARRAY slice of @a. Two different things. What your code does is make a hash, %a, with the same keys as %h, and sets the values for those keys to 10. -- Jeff "japhy" Pinyan [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pobox.com/~japhy/ RPI Acacia brother #734 http://www.perlmonks.org/ http://www.cpan.org/ ** Look for "Regular Expressions in Perl" published by Manning, in 2002 ** <stu> what does y/// stand for? <tenderpuss> why, yansliterate of course.
