very quick newbie question "->" 1

[Hondy]

Hi

Can anyone tell me where I can find some info on what "->" means with reference to strings and databases? I have tried searching but I can't seem to come up with anything.

example code is:
$string = "subdirectory/$row->name";

If anyone can point me in the right direction that'd be great, what whould I search on or what does it mean?

Thanks
