Hi, This is somehow a follow up to "Getting keys of a hash element"
Okay, what I want to do is something like this : 
$tophash{$value1}{$value2} = [$a, $b, $c, $d];

foreach $key (sort keys %tophash) 
{
    $value1 = $key;
    print "$value1";

    foreach $subkey (sort keys %{$tophash{$value1}}) 
    {
        $value2 = $subkey;
        
        foreach $subsubkey (sort %{$tophash{$value}{$value2}} ) 
        {
            print "$subsubkey";
        }
    }
}

The problem with this is that perl puts out this :

(F) You used an array where a hash was expected, but the array has no information on how to map from keys to array indices.
You can do that only with arrays that have a hash reference at index 0.

What I want is to be able to access this key and get just a plain array with normal position markers (0 = $a, 1 = $b, etc.) back.
I am glad about any help. Thanks.
