this works for me. Z=", ".join(["%s:%s" %(a,Y[b]) for b,a in enumerate(X)])

For example, I have X = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'] and Y = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. From X and Y, I want to create a string Z = 'a:1, b:2, c:3, d:4, e:5'. Any help would greatly be appreciated. -Lex Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo!
