Thank you Sven!
Sorry, a question to Artur: of course, Sven solution is perfectly ok,
but... why would you need to do this?
Oops, not sure I could convincingly argue for this :) but my feeling is
that when one enters a séries name in a function he/she expects to get back
the same name to référ to. Probably the use of '*' may be a solution to
that...
Best,
Artur
