This is what happens when you try to code at 1:30am :-) Yes I have it working ok inputdata is a split line read from a file, with the date in a field position specified by MY_DATE eg: mydate = datetime.date(*time.strptime(inputdata[MY_DATE], '%Y-%m-%d')[:3]) I'll take some stronger tea next time !! /Frank --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
