Let me see if I understand what you want to do. You have file1.txt, file2.txt, file3.txt ... and you want to read n columns from those files? It gets confusing. How many columns do you want to read from each file? How many columns does each output file have? Also, it would be very helpful if you give us the format of the input and output files. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
