Right, and it' not going to work as long as you have a colon (:) in the file name. Colons are not valid in a Windows file name. Colons are used to separate the drive letter and the "stream" name. It's just that simple. >Maybe it's good idea to use raw string for specifing those paths? Doesn't matter. Get rid of the colons, and your file name will work. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
