Hi Bobby, This does sound possible. We had some discussion on things like this a few weeks ago; you can browse through the archives at: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/tutor/ In particular, last week's thread "how can I copy files recursively": http://mail.python.org/pipermail/tutor/2006-July/047903.html had some information for doing searches across the filesystem. > If this is possible? How would I do this (please remember that I am new > to Programming in Python). But are you new to programming? If you are new to programming, you may need to develop some basic programming skills first before tackling your problem. Best of wishes! _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
