Hmm. If you're working heavily with tabular data, you may want to consider numpy or pandas, both of which are designed for major computational work and will happily manipulate rows or columns of data. Both are well supported on Windows (and everywhere). They do have their own learning curve though. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
