If I'm reading your question correctly (remember kids, correct grammar/spelling makes it much easier to interpret your question), it sounds like you just want to know the length of the string. From http://docs.python.org/tut/node5.html: The built-in function len() returns the length of a string: >>> s = 'supercalifragilisticexpialidocious' >>> len(s) 34 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
