Hi Wayne,
The functions you are looking for are strptime and strftime. As follows:
>>> import datetime
>>> timeStr = '20080321_113045'
>>> dt1 = datetime.datetime.strptime(timeStr, '%Y%m%d_%H%M%S')
>>> dt2 = dt1 + datetime.timedelta(seconds=200)
>>> print dt2.strftime('%Y%m%d_%H%M%S')
20080321_113405
You can find the format codes for strptime and strftime in the
documentation for the time module.
Hope this helps!
