hi
Have this code in my program;
filename = 'custfile'
codeline = filename + ' = [\n'
output.write(codeline)
record written to file look like this
"custfile" = [
Yet in another part of the program I have code:
def fmtline(fieldline):
code = '(' + fieldline[1].replace('-', '_').replace('.',
'').lower() + \
', ' + fieldline[3] + '),\n'
return code
...
output.write(fmtline(wrkline))
fieldline is a list of which the first item in the list is a fieldname
record written to file looks like this, no quotes
(customer_no, X(6).),
(customer_name, X(30).),
(customer_street_1, X(30).),
(customer_street_2, X(30).),
(customer_city, X(15).),
Why quotes in the first case and not the second and how do I get read
of the quotes
in the first case.
Thanks
