Thanks for replying!
Actually, I have a highly complex datastructure in which both strings,
lists and hashes are values in a primary hash.
e.g.
$hash{$key}[0] = @list;
$hash{$key}[1] = $string;
$hash{$key}[2] = %hash;
I need to assign these values to a specific (number)entry in the primary
hash, so I know which entry has which value.

Close. Try:
use Data::Dumper;
$hash{$key} = [ @list ];
print Dumper( \%hash );
