Hi all, I have a file writing problem.

I am extracting some text from a database and opening a file to write it to 
and I get this error.

f.write(msg[0])
TypeError: read-only buffer, tuple

Here is the code I am using:

sql = "SELECT message FROM email WHERE emailid='%s'" % (rows[0])
msg = con1.query(sql).getresult()
f = open('temp','w')
f.write(msg[0])
f.close

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help.
