Thank you, Pete. It looks just what I want. The document is data for a engineering structural analysis program (usually plain ascii, though in future it might be unicode). The line of code that you gave, looks just what I am looking for. It is a shame I do not understand how document() relates to textEdit widget - is it meant to be an instance of textEdit? I guess I should try it out on the assumption that there is a code line someting like document = self.textEdit ? Thank you again - very kind of you to reply and do it so promptly.
