if you got that error, you clearly didn't type what you say you typed: >>> list = ['One,Two,Three,Four'] >>> list ['One,Two,Three,Four'] >>> list[1:] + ['Five'] ['Five'] (note that the first list contains a single string; if you want to put multiple strings in a list, you need to be more careful with where you put the quotes.) </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
