Thanks. In this case, it means that in each loop iteration, I must search the list to find which item starts with the letter I'd like to begin sorting, eg. "B". Does Python include a search method or do I have to use a for loop to locate this starting item? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
