JH> in the entry of my posting i wrote, that i am a newbie and so please JH> understand me, that i ask so questions?! :-) We are trying to understand that, but it is expected some effort on your side as well :) You didn't read the documentation properly! try to experiment with the code by yourself as well! Try: 1) open your file 2) use readlines() method which returns the list of ALL rows from the file and store them to some variable. it can be done for example like: all_lines = f.readlines() (if you do not know, what the list is, start here: http://docs.python.org/tut/node5.html#SECTION005140000000000000000) 4) save the list members without its first member to the file for example: for line in all_lines[1:]: f.write(line) 5) close the file Good luck Petr Jakes JH> thanks for your help! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
