You can start with Guido's Tutorial on python.org or Alan Gauld's introductory text (I don't have the URLs handy, but a quick google will find them). Also join the "tutor" list; it is an appropriate forum for asking basic python questions. HTH, -D -- Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion.
