Thanks very much all for respondingI got it working. As you
indicated, I just had mixed up my escapes (//) with my \n. When I got
the correct amount of backslashes and removed the linefeeds it worked
great.
Thanks again.

You should use os.path.exists to test if a file exists. Your
exception-catching structure is not necessary.
Also, if the file you are reading from contains proper Windows
filenames, it is not necessary to replace \ with \\ and so forth. The
\ acts as an escape character only when it is in Python

I have the simplest need...to read a file full of file names(unc) and
then check to see if each of these files exists. I tried with the
following program, but always get file not found, even when it is
there. If I type in the file name as a literal it works...
Little program:
#This module checks
