The Python version does not produce a leading space. str(123) --> '123' If you want to control the formatting to mimick vb or create different formatting you can use. " %d" % 123 --> ' 123' The format specifier is just like 'C's printf format strings. A tuple should follow the % sign if formatting more than 1 number. "%d %d" % (123, 456) Python has a similar function to vb's asc. It is ord(). ord() accepts a single character, whereas asc operates on the first character of a string. To mimick vb you could do s = 'hello' ord(s[0]) --> 104 I am unaware of any reference associating vb functionality with Python functionality. Then again, I never looked for one. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
