There is an email list called ProPython (http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/propython) that was started by a group of Visual FoxPro developers who are taking up Python. So it is definitely newbie-friendly, and has many people willing to help walk you through the learning process. And with your database programming background, you're sure to fit in with a Fox-flavored crowd! ___/ / __/ / ____/ Ed Leafe http://leafe.com/ http://dabodev.com/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
