Within a 'try' block, if an exception is called and a matching 'except' block is found, that block will be used to handle the expression. >From the documentation of the "return" keyword: "When return passes control out of a try statement with a finally clause, that finally clause is executed before really leaving the function." Note that there is no talk about exceptions in this. Sybren -- The problem with the world is stupidity.
