Sven, If it's a comma delimited string, you could use: string.split(bozo, ',') to turn it into a list. If you can turn bozo into a list first, things will work the way you want them to. Otherwise, you'll need to use slice operations on the string to remove the elements. Eric.

--- If the thing in question is really a list not a string as you show here then couldn't you do something like: bozo.del[2] which should delete the third item in the list. ---
problem is i don't know where the string is, i only know it's contents...
and it "seems" to behave like a list because i can use _.whrandom.choive(bozo) succesfully on it.
i'm still in the dark ;-)
