I thought the last time it came up on the list, they said that wasn't
usable. Hence it took (# of auto indexes) * lines of code to get around.

Mrm. Interesting. Thanks for the heads-up.

I don't know if I was just ambiguous in my example and we're talking
at cross purposes or not. I suspect miscommunication on my part. For
clarity's sake, I meant if you do:
Then: lookup myalias = accounts i=a k=3
...
Then: aa=4
...then myalias(aa) would -not- give you field 4 from 'accounts'.
