Thanks for your suggestion... For me this was the Solutions: # convert 'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss' to epoch def toEpoch(timestamp): split = str(timestamp).split(' ') tdate = map(int,split[0].split('-')) ttime = map(int,split[1].split(':')) tcode = (tdate[0], tdate[1], tdate[2], ttime[0], ttime[1], ttime[2]) epoch = timegm(tcode) return (int(epoch)) Stefan. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
