Use a datetime.timedelta: In [1]: import datetime In [2]: now = datetime.datetime.now() In [3]: now Out[3]: datetime.datetime(2006, 6, 12, 16, 7, 47, 69000) In [4]: one_day = datetime.timedelta(hours=24) In [5]: now-one_day Out[5]: datetime.datetime(2006, 6, 11, 16, 7, 47, 69000) Kent _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
