The above would be strange because there are non-\w characters in that range, so it's kind of like the range numerically but with holes. Even stranger would be "a"..chr(0x100).chr(0x100) I *think* "a".."z" followed by all pairings of \w characters in the "a"..chr(0x100) range could be an answer, but I'm not certain. -- Jarkko Hietaniemi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.iki.fi/jhi/ "There is this special biologist word we use for 'stable'.
