However, the word exists in one of the py files. Probably the py files are scrambled in some way. How nevertheless do I find the file. BTW, I know where it is, but I'm wondering why this doesn't work. How are you searching? .py files are plain text. Kent -- Wayne Watson (Watson Adventures, Prop., Nevada City, CA) (121.01 Deg.
