Thanks chris. I had similar code to what you provided. I included the "#" (it was a comment in my code) as part of the string when it shouldn't be as part of my test. As soon as you pointed it out that the #'s aren't supposed to be part of the output, I removed them and it worked. How dumb of me. Thanks again.

Assuming the #s aren't in the actual output:

import re
pat = re.compile("^ *(\\([^)]+\\))", re.MULTILINE)
print(pat.search(your_str).group(1))

Obviously can vary depending on how you want to go about defining the
target string.

Cheers,
