If you don't want to use a database, you should probably use the shelve module. However, there is really no particular reason not to use a relational database. It seems a solution fairly well suited to your problem. Python has a database supplied these days: sqlite3. I suggest using that, rather than MS Access. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
