Hi Tom, I would create a function in your module that returns the list. Here's a quick, simplified example: def returnList(): newList = [] newList += [123.45] newList += [529.59] newList += [259.92] return newList aList = returnList() print aList Note the return statement... This enables assignment, as you have done in "xy=enterData.returnList()" Hope this helps, Byron --- _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
