Yep, or a list of hashes. Being that you've only used it for a little while, you probably haven't had time to look through the *extensive* documentation. Try checking out "perldoc perlreftut" and "perldoc perlref" and "perldoc perllol".

Thanks, Timothy, I almost had it before I decided to look back at the list. My only concern was the creation of data space for each new key, I guess it's a non issue. ALTHOUGH, if I have repetitions of keys, code below would obliterate previous key data, would it not? I guess I'm looking at a hash of lists. hmm.... - Jamei -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
