You really are new at this, aren't you? ;-) You need to import the sys module before you use it. Put this at the top of your script: import sys I'd also suggest that you have a run through the tutorial - <http://docs.python.org/tut/>. It's time well spent. If you don't get on with that, there's another couple of tutorials available aimed directly at those new to programming - <http://www.livewires.org.uk/python/> and <http://www.ibiblio.org/obp/thinkCSpy/>. Lastly, although neophytes are more than welcome here, you might find the tutor mailing list a good place to ask questions in the early days of your Python experience. You'll find it here - <http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor>. -- Cheers, Simon B, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.brunningonline.net/simon/blog/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
