The inverse of "ord" is "chr": % python Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Jan 5 2007, 00:12:45) [GCC 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> ord('i') 105 >>> chr(105) 'i' >>> IIRC, the first use of the names "ord" and "chr" for these functions appeared in the Basic language in the 1960's ... in case anyone is interested in this bit of historical trivia. -- Lloyd Zusman [EMAIL PROTECTED] God bless you. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
