There are probably many ways to do this. I would recommend checking out the subprocess module and see if it does what you want. Or you could learn a little Tkinter or wxPython and use that to get the user's variable. Or you could even do it via the command line using the "raw_input" command. http://docs.python.org/lib/module-subprocess.html Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
