Well, where do the instructions tell you to obtain "logistics.py"? Or maybe that is the file you are supposed to create using some editor? Unless you've changed directories, opening a command shell should reveal something like: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19044.2251] (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. C:\Users\Wulfraed> ... C:\Users\Wulfraed would be the directory in which to save the file (for my machine)... But if I run a few directory changes... Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19044.2251] (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. C:\Users\Wulfraed>cd "Documents\_Hg-Repositories\Python Progs" C:\Users\Wulfraed\Documents\_Hg-Repositories\Python Progs> ... means the directory to save in would be C:\Users\Wulfraed\Documents\_Hg-Repositories\Python Progs The idea is to save the .py file in the /current working directory/. That way you only need to type the name of the file, without the long directory path, when invoking the program (which assumes 'python" [python.exe] is on your system path). -- Wulfraed Dennis Lee Bieber AF6VN wlfr...@ix.netcom.com http://wlfraed.microdiversity.freeddns.org/ -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
