So what did happen? Your code simply ignores the error so, for it not to work, I assume you are still getting an error report and traceback? If so what does it say? Python error messages may look arcane to start with but they usually contain enough information to identify a problem without any further debugging - but only if we can see them! :-) HTH, -- Alan Gauld Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
