I think the point is we have a hard time believing that 1700 will never change. What do you plan to do when it does down the line? It's generally a bad idea to focus on something that is obviously a data field as an item to key off of. That said, another approach you could take is to use split(). Split each line, check to see if 1700 is in it, then just grab the next field. Inherent dangers: INUSE field may be empty, so you will grab the wrong value 1700 might be somewhere other than where you expect it etc -- David Rock da...@graniteweb.com _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
