At what point are you wrapping it? Can you show the wrapped form and the error message? As a general rule, you can safely wrap anything that's inside parentheses. for ( var1, var2, var3 ) in zip( Variable1, Variable2, Variable3 ): pass That may be a tad excessive, but you get the idea :) ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
