This has sod all to do with Python, but I have to ask: *what* complains that "the file is not in the right format"? Also, I don't think you meant "frep" that second time, but your typing is sufficiently awful I can't be sure. -- Rhodri James *-* Wildebeest Herder to the Masses -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
