Actually, `'' x @field` just concatenates `@field` empty strings and returns that string. This still causes the warning. You probably had a typo, intending to say `@txt{@field} = ('') x @field;`. Cheers, CombatSquirrel. Entropy is the tendency of everything going to hell.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I still stumble over the hash-slice syntax. I guess I just have to keep working with it. Thanks for the reminder. G. Wade	[reply]
