Ken,
You should probably use the sorting functionality that your DBMS
provides. However, if you have a list of strings that end with a new
line and start with an apostrophe, you can use list comprehensions to
remove them:
newlist = [x[1:-1] for x in newlist]
You can look at the following links to find out more about list
comprehensions here:

You should check out my free beginner's Python book here:

Thanks for the tip. I really don't have a DBMS here. It is just
something I don't use. I will look into it.
Again, thanks. I also appreciate the links.
Ken
