If you're only interested in the fractional seconds part, you're much better off with doing: import time start_time = time.time() ... end_time = time.time() delta_seconds = end_time - start_time delta_milliseconds = delta_seconds * 1000 -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Jan 07 2009) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: Try our new mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
