I am working with some csv files. To make the program more maintainable and
more self-documenting I "define" values to use as subscripts; e.g. ...

define('SS2KEY',0);

BUT, whereas this produces what I expected ...

echo "we have a match - key: $file2cols[0]\n";

.... this does not ...

echo "we have a match - key: $file2cols[SS2KEY]\n";

I see the other text but no value is substitited for $file2cols[SS2KEY]

I've wasted so much time on this. Why can't I define constants to use as
subscripts?

Thanks, Bob
