Does it actually tell you the target is the problem? I see an "OSError: [Errno 17] File exists" for that case, not a permission error. A permission error could occur, for example, if GDS has the source open or locked when you call os.rename. Neil -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
