Hi All, Sorry for the influx of newbie questions -- I'm trying to figure these things out on my own before bothering the community, but a lot of bits and pieces are escaping me at the moment.
I'm retrieving a result set from an SQLite db (using the APSW module) and I want to add the value from one of the fields in the result set to a list. My current code looks something like: result = [] for name in cursor.execute("SELECT name, address FROM contacts ORDER BY name"): result.extend(name) print result For reasons I (obviously) don't understand, the "name" values get broken up into each individual letter of the values in the name field in the result list. So, if the table contained records: Fred Dave When I "print result" I get: ['F','r','e','d','D','a','v','e'] What I'm looking for is: ['Fred','Dave'] Can anyone give me some advice on what I'm doing wrong? Many thanks and much warmth, planetthoughtful -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
