that would be the None object. http://effbot.org/pyref/None which is often used as a placeholder in Python. my guess is that it's the next() call that returns None when you've reached the end of the shapefile list; try changing while Townshps !="": to while Townshps is not None: and see if the problem goes away. if you still get an exception, please post the full traceback; see http://effbot.org/pyfaq/tutor-i-need-help-im-getting-an-error-in-my-program-what-should-i-do for details. </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
