Greetings all, I agree with Roy Johnson about the slashes. you are trying to make @results a reference on the left hand side, which is why you are getting the error. Here are my suggestions for modifying your code. Now if you wanted the array from $d->checklist() to return as a reference itself you might try. However if you already have declared @returnstring outside of the scope of your anonymous sub and you wish to use this sub to modify it then you could simply do something like this... again assuming that $d->checklist() returns an array. A simple way to think of it is that references get assigned to something. So the \ is allowed on the right hand side only. At least thats what works for me. :) These examples are untested but I think, as Roy Johnson pointed out, that your slashes are the problem. -InjunJoel
