This: %foo=(a,A); open(A, "date|"); @t=<$foo{a}>; print $t[0], "\n"; Yields this: AD But this: %foo=(a,A); open(A, "date|"); $t=$foo{a}; @t=<$t>; print $t[0], "\n"; Yields this: Thu Feb 28 17:01:25 EST 1991 So, assoc array ref's don't work in angle brackets? Or did I goof? I'm at pl41. John Bazik jsb@cs.brown.edu
