Would you care to elaborate on how you tried to use re.split and failed? We aren't mind readers here. An example of your non-working code along with the expected result and the actual result would be useful. This is the first example given in the documentation for re.split: >>> re.split('\W+', 'Words, words, words.') ['Words', 'words', 'words', ''] Does it do what you want? If not what do you want? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
