No, what you are seeing is the result of turning a reference into a string. You cannot turn a string back into a reference, even in the same Perl program. Please describe what you want to do (not how you want to do it) and someone on this list will be able to point you in the right direction. The proper answer is to probably turn that second script into a module that the first script can use. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
