Now all I need to know is how to plug the date into the datetime object from a string.
You could use simple string manipulation: >>> import datetime >>> a="20081031" >>> d=datetime.date(int(a[0:4]),int(a[4:6]),int(a[6:8])) >>> d datetime.date(2008, 10, 31) >>> print d 2008-10-31 Greetings, -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
