Thank you Sir for your reply. It is working for me. But is failing if
I have Unicode characters in my path. I tried giving a 'u' in front of
the path but still it fails at f.createdat. Does it support Unicode
Characters?
This the traceback which I got while running the above python script
on my data:
-----------------------------------
\\?\C:\JPDump\AGIT_FSDM\Unicode\Arabic files\ArabicÖ°××××אּשּׁï
