Hmm :) Variable variables come to mind but then again ${$var} can be seen as a mix of both :) The simple/complex separation seems to show people what you can and cannot do with {braces}. That's what comes to mind at least. *shrugs* It all seems "complex". Through the coming days I'll give it more thought :) Regards, Philip Olson
