Variable names in assignments are not subject to expansion. So since "dings$ac", as-is, does not fit the syntax for variable names, it isn't treated as an assignment. This will work: ac=12 eval "dings$ac=wasannersder" paul _______________________________________________ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
