can you give us an example of what you're looking for? generally: exception KeyError: Raised when a mapping (dictionary) key is not found in the set of existing keys from: http://www.python.org/doc/2.5/lib/module-exceptions.html in other words, you tried to access an element of a dictionary with a key that is not in that dict. using the get method [e.g., myDict.get(key, 'N/A')] is a better way to avoid these exceptions than just trying to get something with myDict[key]. -- wesley - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Core Python Programming", Prentice Hall, (c)2007,2001 http://corepython.com wesley.j.chun :: wescpy-at-gmail.com python training and technical consulting cyberweb.consulting : silicon valley, ca http://cyberwebconsulting.com _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
