You're doing two things wrong: the '..' operator needs to be INSIDE the subscript. @fields[$lower .. $upper] The other thing is that you can't do a range like that. If you want to get the elements from [3] to the end, you have to do [3 .. $#fields]: @fields[3 .. $#fields] -- Jeff "japhy" Pinyan [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pobox.com/~japhy/ RPI Acacia brother #734 http://www.perlmonks.org/ http://www.cpan.org/ CPAN ID: PINYAN [Need a programmer?
