Body
I am learning to code, Im very new. I have written a few scripts, and would like to combine them into a single script. I am essentially trying to take the "look ." command from terminal, input it into a text file, and then open that text file to begin manipulating the words inside of it. I have tried many different variations: <pre><code>print "What file do you want to create? " file_in = raw_input(">") file_in = open(file_in, 'w') new_file = os.system("look .") file_in.write(new_file) </code></pre> This results in: <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last): File "hash.py", line 13, in <module> file_in.write(new_file) TypeError: expected a character buffer object </code></pre> After all of the words are printed to screen. I have also tried this: <pre><code>print "What file do you want to create? " file_in = raw_input(">") new_file = os.system("look . > "+file_in+".txt") ##This is attempting to open the file to make each word capital in the list, the list is made at this point capital_words=open(new_file, 'w') </code></pre> But this results in: <pre><code>capital_words = open(new_file, 'w') TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, int found </code></pre> I have tried converting the capital_words to str. But it simply will not let me do this. I can make the list using a script, and I can open an existing list and capitalize each word (which is what I am intending to do here) using a separate script, but I get this problem when I combine them. Any help is appreciated. (I know this doesnt have any practical application, Im just trying to learn the basics of programming)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
