Why did you start a second thread with similar content two minutes after the first? Do you expect us to compare the two messages and figure out what you changed, or were you just impatient for a response? I only check in here about 6 times a day, and I imagine some might be even less often. Your test string literal has lots of backslashes in it, which get interpreted into escape sequences in a literal, but not in a file. If that's really what the file looks like, you're going to want to use a raw string. I agree with Roy, you're probably not getting the same string the two ways. -- DaveA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
