Hello Alan,<BR>
<BR>
Oops, then I have a problem.<BR>
Im following this book : <A href="http://openbookproject.net/thinkcs/python/english2e/">http://openbookproject.net/thinkcs/python/english2e/</A> which is the first link in the beginners tutorial page.<BR>
And it's talking about the string modules.<BR>

<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Thats OK, I only replied because what you said could genuinely have been <BR>a mistake because some old tutorials still refer to the string module amnd <BR>its functions. Because other begineers may read the post too it was <BR>important to make the distinction.<BR><BR>Regards,<BR>
