Perhaps if you described what the actual *criteria* is for the translation; for instance, "I need to keep only letters, numbers and punctuation characters" etc... Going by your example, it's tempting to suggest the best method would be string_name[1:-1] and that you don't need a regex. Jon. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
