Oh, sorry that I missed that. I'll try it with indexed variables then. Still the question arises why the syntax here is different from usual table indexing -- why can't I use something along the lines of ":var t=table(@II$2..@>$4)"? That would be really really nice. Would it be hard to implement? András
