Thanks everybody with your help my code is doing what it should do.
I am catching all the code between a start and an end point and storing it in a list.

Code:

import re

parsing =False
aList = []
mylist = []
bBlock = []

fileObj = open('inputfile', 'r')
for line in fileObj:
    if line.find(".ent") != -1:
        print "Now parsing **************************************"

bvdet,

Thanks again and to the others who replied.
That's what I need it to do, but after it finds the start word it strips all the lines and I want to keep the file structure as it was. I tried to remove ".strip()" from "sLine = fileObj.next(). strip()", but that didn't work. With my previous code i used readlines().

Another question, after that the alist has stored the values between the start...

Thank you bvdet for the quick reply.
I tried to follow your approach, but i got stuck the second loop (while loop). I get an error when i do try to leave both loops. I am not sure where to use the breaks to leave of the loops. Thanks again for your help

Code:

import re

fileObj = open(inputFile, 'r')
#lines = f.readlines()
aList = []
for line in fileObj:
    sLine = line.strip()
    #print
