Thank you Gary and Kay for the response My apologies for being dense with regard to this: If I understand your responses correctly, the "from xml.etree import ElementTree" that I inserted is failing? And that is why I am getting the NameError in the method? Is Python just ignoring the failure? Rory -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
