Thanks so much! Now another task, associated with this one... what I actually ultimately want is to just pull out several fields from the text file in the zip archive (there is actually only one file).. so, my goal is the to create a file that looks like:
t[0], x[0], y[0] t[1], x[1], y[1] t[2], x[2], y[2] t[3], x[3], y[3] ... t[:], x[:], y[:] Note, these would actually be strings representing the values... and I'm not trying to do the header yet... :s I've tried OUT = [t,x,y ] but when I write it out, it seems to go through all of t first, then x, then y... i'm having a really hard time switching my thinking away from matlab array processing which I think is part of my problem!! I read a discussion last night that I thought was interesting: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2002-December/174954.html It was this point that made me start to think I need to 'rethink' how I'm going about things... but argh!! ... how to teach an old dog new tricks! -j
