It would be helpful if you would also include the error that you get when trying to run the code. > global labelList > labelList= dict() > > global counter > counter = 0 That said, these lines stick out as being obviously wrong. The global statement is used within the context of a function to declare that a name used within that function has global scope rather than local scope. There is no meaning to using the statement at the module level like this -- Python already knows the name is global, because it's not being used within a function -- and I'd be surprised if this didn't result in a SyntaxError. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
