Duh! Headsmack. Thanks. But also, I discovered something else. If I name the script findmyfiles.py and run it from the command line while in the directory where it is stored (on windows), I must run it as:
findmyfiles.py d:/notes notes*.* I was used to being able to run scripts by just typing the script name, even without the .py extension, but findmyfiles d:/notes notes*.* does not work Thank you, Felipe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
