Thanks for the reply. It's kind of hard for me to critique your reply at this point, because I'm starting to understand my problem now. But what I liked about your help was that you took it in steps and show each process. What's always a little confusing is when people immediately resort to examples for help instead of explaining it in words first, because often times this just duplicates the confusion for the OP. But examples definitely help! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
