Good reminder, I knew it was colliding, just forgot with what syntax. > what for hashes with OOP interface means: > a["AND"]["B"] => a["AND","B"] > anyhow if you prefer . like in VFP then you can use: > #xtranslate .<!msg!> => :<msg> Thanks for the tip. I'm a little bit worried about speed drop here compared to direct index access, so probably I will stay with current index access practice. Nice to have this anyway. What was the reason not enabling this in default builds?
