My apologies Python Gurus for repeating this request for read, write, split and
append from a text file in notepad. I worked on it till late last night and
will again today. I can't seem to get past trying to write the names to one
list and the numbers (converted to integers) to the other. My lists come up
empty.
I am a full-time firefighter that taught myself to use ArcGIS to make maps and
now am in school so I can move into emergency mgmt. I can't seem to teach
myself Python and I am really trying.
thank-you,
LN
