Your file is named serial.py, so "import serial" in that file will try to import itself. You can see this in the traceback you posted, everything is coming from "C:\Users\Jahree\serial.py". Rename your serial.py and things should work as expected. Hope this helps, -- Zach -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
