Hi Ron I have always found regular expressions to be too hard to read. You
can isolate the data you need in a more legible and easy to debug way just
using for loops. I always try to get the python code to reasonably closely
resemble the verbal explanation of the code. Below is a small example where
I have isolated the position data.

##########################################################################
file = open('/your/path/AE_to_Nuke.txt')
f = file.read()
theSplitFile = f.split("\r")
file.close()
theFileWithLineNumbers = zip(range(len(theSplitFile)),theSplitFile)
theNumberOfLines = len(theFileWithLineNumbers)
thePositionData = []
for i in range(theNumberOfLines):
if "Position" in theFileWithLineNumbers[i][1]:
thePositionLineNumber = theFileWithLineNumbers[i][0]
for anItem in theFileWithLineNumbers[thePositionLineNumber+2:]:
if anItem[1] == "":
break
else:
thePositionData.append(anItem[1].strip().split("\t"))
theFrames = []
theXvalues = []
theYvalues = []
for anItem in thePositionData:
theFrames.append(anItem[0])
theXvalues.append(anItem[1])
theYvalues.append(anItem[2])
