(I should define 'correctly' as 'the way I > wanted'...). I presume because you're sensible enough not to have sh_word_split set.

By the way, in 4.1 you can now do array+=($newitem) -- Peter Stephenson Software Engineer CSR Ltd., Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WH, UK Tel: +44 (0)1223 692070 ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
