Take a look at http://tutoree7.pastebin.com/EmyQTaYt I see. I'd recommend the approach of sticking your source data in a separate text file (using a text editor rather than IDLE) in any case; it's much less of a pain to change what you are working on that way. -- Rhodri James *-* Wildebeest Herder to the Masses -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
