Just for anyone who'd like to see informative stuff like that for all their warnings, adding "use diagnostics;" to the top of your script will give you the right section from perldiag at the same time your warning is generated. It also does a couple of other nifty bits like giving you a stack trace on die. Can be very helpful when trying to work out what's wrong with some code. -- Best Regards, Daniel [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
