or a string iterable ? How can I do that. I have lots of '\r\n'characters in the string which I think can be easier if it were made into a list and I can easily see if the required value (its a numeral)is present in it or not after some position or after some characters'position.
Why dont the ``find`` or ``index`` methods work for you? http://docs.python.org/lib/string-methods.html Cheers, Alan Isaac -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
