Thanks! Unfortunately there seem to be a compability conflict with hashes. For isntance `$hr->{qw/this that/}` already means `$$hr{join $;,qw/this that/}` ! That's an old feature (perl4 ?) for multidimensional hashes `$hash{"this","that"}`! (for more see documentation for $; in perlop)	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You're looking for `@{$hr}{qw/this that/}` My criteria for good software: Does it work? Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?	[reply] [d/l]
