Rob, thanks, this example helps drive the point home. Would you also argue that open INFILE, $file || die "Can't open $file: $!"; should really be written as die "Can't open $file: $!" if (!open INFILE, $file); or is this a different kettle of fish? By the way, I really appreciate that this list caters to multiple levels of "beginners"! I've not only been helped a lot on here, but I hope I've helped a few myself. :) -- http://emerson.wss.yale.edu/perl Pete Emerson WSS AM&T Yale University -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
