    Full_address="Firstname + ''+Surname\
    Address1\
    Address2\
    Address3\"
    Hi,
    i am looking for the syntax (if possible) to make the above work (i am getting syntax errors) so that i can save variables that i have created as a full block of output. I need to push the address onto the line below and not all on one line.
    please help...

    I think its the new line character your after "\n", i have included two ways of doing it, hope its what your looking for :)
    .
    >>> first_name = "First"
    >>> last_name = "Last"
    >>> address1 = "Address one"
    >>> address2 = "Address two"
    >>> address3 = "Address three"
    >>> print first_name + " " + last_name + "\n" + address1 + "\n" + address2 + "\n" + address3
    First Last
    Address one
    Address two
    Address three
    >>> 
    
    or
    >>> first_name = "First"
    >>> last_name = "Last"
    >>> address1 = "Address one"
    >>> address2 = "Address two"
    >>> address3 = "Address three"
    >>> print "%s %s\n%s\n%s\n%s" % (first_name, last_name, address1, address2, address3)
    First Last
    Address one
    Address two
    Address three
    >>>
