Unfortunately, when I try that it says "Windows cannot find [that file]", etc. And yet I am copying the filename right from the file manager and it IS there. What's also odd is that if I open the file using cd and then just putting the filename on the next line, that file (which I gave a .pyw extension) doesn't open, but a file that has a .py extension does. Any ideas? Thanks. Che -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
