Well George that's unfortunate. I hate to say "i told you so", but i've been preaching the importance of testing code that manipulates files for many years. If only you had run the code a few times and MERELY printed the src and dst paths to stdout you MIGHT could have saved yourself a tough lesson. But all may not be lost. If you want to post the relevant bits of the source code we may find a solution for you. Maybe your path munging was clumsy and you moved them somewhere unexpected... who knows??? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
