Test: $stat(checknow)

You've effectively taken a reference to the checknow function and given it the name 'stat'. So when you call $stat(), I would expect it to call checknow() with exactly those arguments. I don't know what "$def with(checknow)" means, but if you figure out what checknow is inside there, then you'll know whether you want any argument at all. I suspect just "$stat()" may well do what you want. ChrisA
