*grin* it is a cut and paste from some of the first python code I wrote. It has the sole merit that it actually works as advertised, and it shows the OP that you can actually help yourself if you try... As I understood it, he was happy with the date - time string he got back, except that he did not like the microseconds at the end. I thought that showing him the formatting process from a completely different start point might encourage him to simply trim off the end bit that he did not need. - Hendrik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
