Just try to get the logic in a flowchart form. Here are the elements you may use:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;Step 1 -&amp;gt; Step 2 etc.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;if Condition 1 then Step 1 else Step 2&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;loop over Item in Items_List doing Steps&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;call DoItNow (Parm 1, Parm 2, etc.)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Exit Condition Code&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Input () &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Print &amp;quot;I am starting out&amp;quot;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;This should allow 95% of anything you may want to do. I can help you when you get stuck. BTW, I program for a living including python.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cheers,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Clem&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=19952&amp;AppID=293&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
