Hi John, You can use the 'traceback' module: http://www.python.org/doc/lib/module-traceback.html Use the traceback.print_exc() function within the except block: it'll automatically pull information from sys.exc_info() for you: ###### try: rhfill = Ngl.contour(wks,rhisobar,rh_res) except: traceback.print_exc() ###### Best of wishes to you! _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
