Hi Tim,
The sample data is in file build.number
contents of file build.number:
#Build Number for ANT. Do not edit!
#Mon Aug 20 04:04:51 EDT 2007
build.number=1
Thanks,
Brian

This is preferred nowadays
for line in open(buildinfo):
print line
Without a sample of the data, no-one can help you further. If this
is homework, you should say so, people will give you guidance :)
