It's difficult to know what's wrong with the code you posted because: * it is not self-contained: otherFile, fileName, pattern are names which you do not define; * the IOError you reported earlier can't arise as a result of running this code. * you claim it works unless you put it in a subclass of threading.Thread. Why don't you post this instead, and show us the traceback? HTH FWIW, my crystal ball (whose predictions I don't usually report!) tells me the same as Garry Herron's. -- Arnaud -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
