Nothing strong. I tend to use double quotes because I have a background in C (where double quotes are for strings, single quotes for characters), and double quotes are the recommendation for docstrings (see PEP 258). If you tend to work a lot with SQL, you might prefer single quotes. Use whatever makes you happy. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
