it didn't help. it reads the pathway "as is" (see errors for both
tries). It looks like it had the write pathway the first time, but
could not find it because it searched in the path/way instead of in the
path\way. thanks for trying.
folders= ['1','2','3']
for x in folders:
print x # print the current folder
filename='Folder/%s/myfile.txt' %[x]
f=open(filename,'r')
gives: IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
"Folder/['1']/myfile.txt"

oops, my mistake, actually it didn't work...
when I tried:
for x in folders:
print x # print the current folder
filename='Folder/%s/myfile.txt' %x
f=open(filename,'r')
it says: IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'Folder/1/myfile.txt'
I believe it's because x is the position marker what you want instead is
the contents of folders at x; therefore folders[x]
HTH,
