So something like @array[a] is invalid. U can specify two dimensional values like $array[1][1] = "a"; that's offset column 1 row 1. There are various methods to automatically generate a 2D array with loops and maps. 3x3 2D array: @array = (["a", "b", "c"], ["e", "f", "g"], ["h", "i", "j"]); print $array[2][3]; #### g -- REMEMBER THE WORLD TRADE CENTER ---=< WTC 911 >=-- "...ne cede malis" 00000100 _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
