Hi group :) I have this standard line:
export = open(self.exportFileName , 'w') 'exportFileName' is a full path given by the user. If the user gives an illegal path or filename the following exception is raised: "IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: /some/path/file.txt" So at the moment I do this: try: export = open(self.exportFileName , 'w') export.write("Something") export.close() except IOError: # calling an error handling method. Now, this works but of course it catches every IOError, and I can not figure out how to restrict it to only catch the "[Errno 2]"? Thanks Tina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
