I'm not a guru. Maybe that's why I don't understand which "sql-like sort-by on multiple keys" would produce output that lacks some of the input but has additional items. ;) In other words: why don't you show your concrete program and the input and output data to use. Is the data a list of tuples or lists or what? Cheers, Jussi -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
