I did try them. I may have missed replying your to your specific comment, but I tried them. BTW str(range (10)) does work with Python 2 which is where I may have got the idea. I happened to be using Python 3 at the time I tried to implement it. It is a little confusing jumping back and forth, but for the moment, I am going to tough it out. I do appreciate all the help too. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
