[EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Hello all, | I have a username variable luser: | | luser = win32api.GetUserName | | I need to insert it into the following to replace the hardcoded | "johndoe" in the pathname of GIS.GIS.Parcels: | | GIS_GIS_Parcels = "Database | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | .GIS.Parcels"
Just in case that's real code you've posted, you should have: luser = win32api.GetUserName () # note the brackets otherwise you're simply binding the function object to the name luser and not the result of calling it. But as to your actual question, you want to do something like this: x = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" % luser ie use %s within a string as a placeholder for the luser string.
