Yeah, my mistake on this one. I'm not convinced that I like this feature (negative indexes indexing from the end of the array), but it's in the docs. Also, I checked, and if you index past the beginning of an array with a negative number, you get undef, which is at least consistent with what happens when you index past the far end of an array. _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
