Hi Servando, This works. Be aware that cursor.execute() is a little smarter than you might think. The email I pointed to earlier covers what might go wrong, and how to avoid it going wrong. Here's the link again: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/tutor/2003-April/022010.html I'm just trying to make sure you understand the possibility of an "SQL injection attack" by bugging you about this. *grin* Good luck! _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
