Thanks guys, you fixed the problem!

A new one though, how do you compare arrays? The whole thing reads:

for aa in 01 02 03
do
OrigNum[$aa]=$(grep -c ${Orig[$aa]} Ba3In2F12.prepos)
OrigNum[$aa]=$((${OrigNum[$aa]} - 1))
for bb in 01 02 03
do
for cc in 01 02 03
do
echo "${Orig[$bb]}" "${OrigNum[$bb]}"
echo "${Element[$cc]}" "${Numel[$cc]}"

if [ "${OrigNum[$bb]}"=="${Numel[$cc]}" ]; then
echo "SUCCESS!"
sed s/${Orig[$bb]}/${Element[$cc]}/ <Ba3In2F12.prepos>Ba3In2F12.preposterous
mv Ba3In2F12.preposterous Ba3In2F12.prepos
fi
done
done
done

I have an array called Numel[01-03], but when it compares, it always gives a success!!! I don't get it. Thanks! And sorry if these questions are elementary, I'm very new.

xml::element

XML::Element(3) 					User Contributed Perl Documentation					   XML::Element(3)

NAME

       XML::Element - XML elements with the same interface as HTML::Element

SYNOPSIS

	 [See HTML::Element]

METHODS AND ATTRIBUTES

   delete_ignorable_whitespace
       TODO: test and document this: with no tagname set, assumes ALL all-whitespace nodes are ignorable!

   endtag
       Redirects to HTML::Element::endtag_XML

   starttag
       Redirects to HTML::Element::starttag_XML

DESCRIPTION

       This is just a subclass of HTML::Element.  It works basically the same as HTML::Element, except that tagnames and attribute names aren't
       forced to lowercase, as they are in HTML::Element.

       HTML::Element describes everything you can do with this class.

CAVEATS

       Has currently no handling of namespaces.

SEE ALSO

       XML::TreeBuilder for a class that actually builds XML::Element structures.

       HTML::Element for all documentation.

       XML::DOM and XML::Twig for other XML document tree interfaces.

       XML::Generator for more fun.
