Hello Xavier,

Thank you :)

Well what Iam trying to generate is that kind of result:

listn1=['ELM001_DIF', 'ELM001_SPC', 'ELM001_RFL', 'ELM001_SSS',
'ELM001_REFR', 'ELM001_ALB', 'ELM001_AMB', 'ELM001_NRM', 'ELM001_MVE',
'ELM001_DPF', 'ELM001_SDW', 'ELM001_MAT', 'ELM001_WPP']

listn2 = ['ELM002_DIF', 'ELM002_SPC', 'ELM002_RFL', 'ELM002_SSS',
'ELM002_REFR', 'ELM002_ALB', 'ELM002_AMB', 'ELM002_NRM', 'ELM002_MVE',
'ELM002_DPF', 'ELM002_SDW', 'ELM002_MAT', 'ELM002_WPP']

etc...

The thing is, the first list will be generated automatically. (so there
will be unknow versions of ELM00x....)
that why Im trying to figure out how to genere variable and list in an
automatic way.

Can you tell me if its not clear please ? :P
my english still need improvement when Im trying to explain scripting
things.

Create a dict in which the key is the "ELEM" part and the value is a
list of those entries which begin with that "ELEM" part.

For example, if the entry is 'ELEM001_DIF' then the key is 'ELEM001',
which is the first 7 characters of entry, or entry[ : 7].

Something like this:

    elem_dict = {}
    for entry in list_of_entries:
        key = entry[ : 7]
        if key in elem_dict:
            elem_dict[key].append(entry)
        else:
            elem_dict[key] = [entry]
