if you can construct a list of "illegal" characters, then you can simply check each character of the word against the list, and if it succeeds for all of the characters, it's a winner. If that's not fast enough, you can build a translation table from the list of illegal characters, and use translate on each word. Then it becomes a question of checking if the translated word is all zeroes. More setup time, but much faster looping for each word. -- DaveA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
