What does "not run" mean. We can't help if you are not telling us the exact error message you're getting (if any) > filename = 'c:\users\user\my documents\Braxton\Excel\personal\bp.csv' That being said, there's at least a problem with this line because you're not escaping the backslashes. So the resulting filename string is not what you intended it to be (try printing it to see what I mean). Several solutions possible: - switch to using forward slashes / this works on windows too. - use a raw string literal r'.....' - or escape the backslashes \\ Irmen -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
