Thanks for this - it has definite possibilities! Sorry if the experience comment offended but I didn't mean programming experience (knowledge) I meant in the sense of different employers and the constraints that might apply depending on employer! I can't change the original code I can only apply a wrapper! One (well more than one but point me at the right place and I should work the rest out for myself), question that occurs is - line 34 is setting an execute flag against each value held on the hash table? Which book covers this - I've bought most of the O'Reilly books - and this is definately outwith my current Perl knowledge!
Cheers,
Ronnie
