I have aprogram that manipulates several text files, does some math and saves new files then exits.
The program worked fine on the original set of data, but with new data does not open the files as needed. When I copy and paste the 'open line' from the module to IDLE the file opens. section of code that is not working and import statements below: import statements------------ # combine point source data from numpy import * from string import * import point_input section of code----------------- pathincbp=path+'/sub'+sub+'/cbp_'+npdes+'.txt' flag='false' while flag=='false': try: cbpin=open(pathincbp,'r') flag='true' stopping the module manually------------------------------ Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python25\point_sources\combine_point_sources_swat.py", line 155, in <module> print pathincbp+' not found' KeyboardInterrupt IDLE commands--------------------------- >>> cbpin=open(pathincbp,'r') >>> cbpin <open file 'c:/potomac_points_data/sub1/cbp_PA0026051.txt', mode 'r' at 0x01450380> I am running in windows xp professional 2002 service pack 3 on a Xeon dell Thanks, Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
