Paulo> That is not the point. The problem is to have things generalized.Well, perhaps. One of the goals of the csv module was to do things the way Excel does things. Ideally, that would include formatting elements with locale sensitivity. I've been working on a csv module in Python, so I decided to try the locale.format() calls in its writerow implementation. A number of test cases broke as a result because apparently locale.format doesn't do its job quite the same way Excel does. I don't think pushing the locale-sensitive formatting down into the csv module is going to be a panacea. Skip -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
