wow, thank you! that wasn't as easy as I thought it might be...I thought I was just missing a built in function. I clearly have much to learn.

while i'm at it, is there an easy way to reference a layer based on it's layer name (the name you see in the layers pallette in photoshop) rather then it's number in an array? the only way i can think of right now is to create a loop to check each layer in a document and if that layer's name == "specified layer name", assign it to a variable. but again, very new to scripting so i could be approaching this all wrong.
