Have you profiled an application and found string concatenation to be a performance bottleneck? I would be surprised, but it's always possible. If not, I'd suggest you choose the technique that is most clear and concise, and worry about performance only if it becomes a real issue. Carey -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
