Hi Bob: How about this: ============================================= f1=Length[#[[1,1]]]>2&; f2=Length[#[[3,1]]]>4&; test= ToExpression[ StringJoin[ StringReplace[ToString[f1 || f2], "&"->" "],"&"]]; mylist={{{1,2,3},1},{1,2},{4,5}}; test[mylist] ============================================= Out: True In the above, I constructed the compound test f1 || f2, converted it to a string, took out the "&" everywhere, put the "&" back in at the end, then converted everything back into an expression. The final "test" seems to do what you want. Cheers, Des ------------------------------- Des Penny Physical Science Dept.
