I'm not sure what you mean. The Python variables and dictionary is all strings too. mysetting is just a string... But the choice is yours, you can use config parser to parse a config file into variables in a settings module or you can create the settings directly in the settings module. -- Alan Gauld Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
