Problem with a for loop and a list

[Alexnb]

Actually I tried that and had no sucsess, but I just figured it out. I set
every value in wordList to 'None' and so even if all the entry fields aren't
taken up, they go to '', so I can tell what is and what isn't taken up, and
get the string of the ones that are taken up.
