Wrong. As you stated, sorted() is a function, not a method. orderedListOfTuples = [(k,mydict[k]) for k in sorted(mydict.keys())] It's great that many people try to help out on comp.lang.python, the community won't survive otherwise, but I think it's important to test answers before posting them, unless you're sure about your answer. A wrong answer might actually be worse than no answer at all. I fear that newbies will just get scared off if they get bunch a of replies to their questions, and most are wrong. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
