I did try them. I may have missed replying your to your specific
comment, but I tried them.
BTW str(range (10)) does work with Python 2 which is where I may have
got the idea. I happened to be using Python 3 at the time I tried to
implement it. It is a little confusing jumping back and forth, but
for the moment, I am going to tough it out.
I do appreciate all the help too.
