Hmmm... I'm sure I tried this too... definitely better that I was getting, but still not right: I get the value inserted if the key exists, but the match is not left in place if there is no key in the hash. Also, I'm not getting the bracketing text.. Still, I'm further that I was! :-) -- Ian Stuart A man depriving some poor village, somewhere, of a first-class idiot.	[reply]
