JH> this helps me! JH> thank you very much!!!!!
JH> greetings, juergen I am happy to see my postings (which I sent by accident to you only, not to the list, see below) helped. But....: Its a pity we can not see your solution (your code) here :( It helps to others as well to see, how to solve some "problems" Petr Jakes JH>> that documentation i have already read, but it wouldn`t help me for my JH>> problem! JH>> i know, how i can read the first line an print them on the screen! JH>> but...how can i say python, delete the first line?! JH>> thats my problem! PJ> as Fredrik told you, you can not delete the first line directly!!! 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?! :-) PJ> We are trying to understand that, but it is expected some effort on PJ> your side as well :) PJ> You didn't read the documentation properly! PJ> try to experiment with the code by yourself as well! PJ> Try: PJ> 1) open your file PJ> 2) use readlines() method PJ> which returns the list of ALL rows from the file and store them to some PJ> variable. PJ> it can be done for example like: PJ> all_lines = f.readlines() PJ> (if you do not know, what the list is, start here: PJ> http://docs.python.org/tut/node5.html#SECTION005140000000000000000) PJ> 4) save the list members without its first member to the file PJ> for example: PJ> for line in all_lines[1:]: PJ> f.write(line) PJ> 5) close the file JH> Good luck JH> Petr Jakes JH>> thanks for your help! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
