Greetings.

Is there such a thing as mutlidimensional associative array ?

The reason I ask this is that I intent copy the contents of a time stamped file into 
one big file which will be used to update fields of a database. I intend using the 
filename ( remember it is time stamped) and use it as a key.

FILE 1 ( Filename = 23_59_54_20_08_2002)
=====

FIELD1    FIELD2    FIELD3
20            40            60


FILE 2 (Filename = 23_59_55_20_08_2002)
=====

FIELD1    FIELD2    FIELD3
30            20            45


@myFileNameArray = (23_59_54_20_08_2002, 23_59_55_20_08_2002);
@myMultiDimArray = ([20, 40, 60], [30, 20, 45]);

I guess what I am really asking here is can i combine the two arrays in such a way 
that the Filename array becomes the key whose value is mapped to the multidimensioal 
array ?

I hope what i am asking makes sense.
