What was wrong with the way you used?
Was it too easy to understand? Not difficult enough? Too few bugs?
You could try something like this:
def substitute(D):
L = D.keys()[:]
i = 0
while (i < len(L)) is True:
key = L[i]
if D[key] == None:
D[key] = 'Null'
else:
del L[i]
i = i + 1
return D
D = {'item1': None, 'item2': 23, 'item3': 42, 'item4': None, 'item5': 15}
print substitute(D)
gives {'item1': 'Null', 'item2': 23, 'item3': 42, 'item4': 'Null',
'item5': 15} as needed.
And I really, really hope this is of no hope whatsoever! ;-)
