As a newbie, you would do well to read and study the tutorial which you can find at http://docs.python.org/tut/tut.html In particular there is an interesting section on Strings: http://docs.python.org/tut/node5.html#SECTION005120000000000000000 and http://docs.python.org/lib/string-methods.html Francesco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
