Tried that and it looked fine. I think I've found the problem and
solution. I was using a TextBox control for the output and should have
been using an EditBox. The TextBox accepted a list and put it into the
format that I pasted. The EditBox puts on the console "Error message:
String or Unicode type required" which led me to converting it to string
and I will split and use os.path.join with the elements to get the list
I really need.
Thanks for the guidance.
