in reply to Output To File with Array help

Re-read the docs for print. Start at the bottom.

id like to learn why this doesnt work

Limitations in the parser. It needs to know whether what follows print is a file handle or not in short order. This limits what can be used as a file handle.

    yeah i had it working with 4 different print statements, but i wanted to see if i could use my head and get it to run more effecient with an array running thru the array index. you telling me that ill be unable to use an array as a filehandle period? or will i have to deliminate it somehow so the print function sees that its indeed a reference to a real filehandle?

      You really need to read the docs he linked to. Starting at the bottom.
