it...the other problem is finding that solution...Thanks again.

Hi John,
You can use the 'traceback' module:
http://www.python.org/doc/lib/module-traceback.html
Use the traceback.print_exc() function within the except block: it'll
automatically pull information from sys.exc_info() for you:
######
try:
rhfill = Ngl.contour(wks,rhisobar,rh_res)
except:
traceback.print_exc()
######
Best of wishes to you!
