It's like reading a file, you can't read the same file twice without re-opening, but you can remember the (string) data from the file and use it however you want to: data = side.read() liste = self.compile_obj.findall(data) liste2 = self.compile_obj2.findall(data) Kent _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
