I messed around with this some and I believe you are correct. When you tell it to search using '**', glob will look only in directories that are two characters long. This is obviously not what is needed. Instead, try setting it like this: dirFilter = '*\\' That seemed to work for me. Good luck! Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
