Is it possible in Python to look at a string as a "struct". I don't
think a struct exists in python. Actually, is there something analogous
to a record. In the case of strings, suppose I have string that is
composed of sub-strings like, first_name, last-name, date_of

True enough, but that gets messy. I'd have to keep them perhaps as
global variables or pass then around a lot from function to function as
a collection. I see WW posted above you about dictionaries. Maybe
that's the way to do it. I'll look into it.

If your string separates the values of each person using tags rather than
fixed lengthes, build it like:
or:
self.Firstname = str[0:str.find(Last name:)]

Thanks. I had a hunch that might be a good way to do it. I saw
something like this in other s/w. Now I know what they were up to.

I assume you mean you have a lot of data all stored in a single
string?
I also assume that either the string has a fixed delimiter - like a
comma
separated file?
Or it has fixed length fields?
