You only gave the error text not the fll message. A Python error message is multi line and looks like: File "<stdin>", line 2 def g(): pass ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax >>> That shows the file name, the line at fault, the location within the line as well as the description. If the error ioccurs deep within a program there will be a full stack trace showing all of the nested function calls too. > I did not anticipate that the email programs would clobber > the indentation. Sadly it happens all too often. The best solution is to ensure you send in plain text rather than HTML or RTF formats. Another trick is to put a character in front of all blank lines (a dot or hyphen say) Alan G Author of the learn to program web tutor http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
