You're asking for 'C:\Users\saftarn\Desktop\NetFlixDataSet\training_set', but Python interprets that as 'C:\Users\saftarn\Desktop\NetFlixDataSet raining_set', which probably doesn't exist. The first example works by accident because backslash plus the first letter of each folder in your path happens to not match any of Python's string formatting characters. Use forward slashes or double up the backslashes to stop this happening. Cheers, Drea -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
