Guys,
Here are 2 code snippets for array of array refs: 

@t_arr2 = ("one", "two", "three");
push(@t_arr, \@t_arr2);
@t_arr2 = ("four", "five", "six");
push(@t_arr, \@t_arr2);
for $str1 ( @t_arr )
{
    print "$str1->[0]\n";
    print "$str1->[1]\n";
    print "$str1->[2]\n";
}

and 
@t_arr2 = ("one", "two", "three");
push(@t_arr, [@t_arr2]);
@t_arr2 = ("four", "five", "six");
push(@t_arr, [@t_arr2]);
for $str1 ( @t_arr )
{
    print "$str1->[0]\n";
    print "$str1->[1]\n";
    print "$str1->[2]\n";
}

[download]

The first gives me :

four
five
six
four
five
six

[download]
and the 2nd gives me 
one
two
three
four
five
six

The 2nd is the answer I want, but I don't understand the difference between taking an array ref \@arr and taking an array ref
[@array]
??
Cheers
Chris
PS you can assume the usual invocations
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
