Danny,
Here's the working program.
Tom
*****************************************************************************************
#!/usr/bin/python2.4
input = open('/home/tom/Python/Input/SPY3.txt', 'r')
N=0
s = 'boo'
date =[]
T = [0,0,0,0,0,0] #don't know why this is necessary
open = []
close = []
hi = []
lo = []
vol = []
while s:
s = input.readline()
if s == '':break
s = s[:-2]
T[N] = s.split(',')
date.append(T[N][0])
open.append(float(T[N][1]))
hi.append(float(T[N][2]))
lo.append(float(T[N][3]))
close.append(float(T[N][4]))
vol.append(float(T[N][5]))
N+=1
print N
for i in range(N):
T[i]
print T[i]
print date[i], open[i], hi[i], lo[i], close[i], vol[i]
print T[1][2], T[0][0]
z = (hi[2] +lo[2])/2.0
print z
