Yes, it depends on how big the problem really is and how complicated the solution has to be. Are the files all in the same format? Do they have to be parsed repeatedly? Will new versions of the files be released? Will the parser output go straight to a Web page or will it be stored somewhere? Paul -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
