And the reason for the error message is, when you write a(b) Python interprets this as, call the object a, passing the parameter b. If a is a string - a 'str' object - Python attempts to call the string. Strings are not callable so you get the error message you see. Kent -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
