I think when I pasted the message from the code in this email, the indentation is little off. I used notepad++ for writing the code. It didnt show wrong indentation. However, on notepad it is wrongly indented. The program is working now. Thanks for your time and sorry for the inconvenience. Mahendra. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
