ok thanks, I have now better question...

i have a small problem in scanning an array in a for loop.

I know how to access to a single cell: $magnaPlaza[$1];

but how can I write the indexing variable in a for loop ?

Code:

for j in `seq 3`
do
echo referenceImage $magnaPlaza[$j];    --> this doesn't work

echo referenceImage $magnaPlaza[$$j];    --> this doesn't work

I need somehow to pass the value of j but keep the $ symbol in front of it...

thanks
