They wouldn't. In $a[05], 05 is a number. To get a string, quotes would be needed. As for $a[$something], if @a had been declared as "my @a : assoc;", then perl should stringify $something, otherwise numify. Hmm.. I guess this implies that all hashes need to be pre-declared. :-( -Scott -- Jonathan Scott Duff [EMAIL PROTECTED]
