Tim's method works - but you should REALLY REALLY think about what's causing you to want to do this. This sort of trick could be handy when debugging, but using it in code that's meant to run reliably can wind up giving you some serious headaches. For instance, the object referred to by the string could get garbage-collected before you can dereference it... --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
