Hi,

The following lines of code gives an error starting with line where len() is used


local_BkFiles = glob.glob(localDirectoryName+'\\*' + data + '*bk*')
local_BkFiles.sort(key=str.upper)
last_pv_File_Name = local_PvFiles[len(local_PvFiles)-1]
split_last_pv_File_Name = re.search(data+"_bk[0-9]{2}_[a-z]{3}_pv[0-9]{2}",last_pv_File_Name ) lastPv_FileVersion = re.search('(?<=pv)\d+',split_last_pv_File_Name.group(0))


This code is being called in a procedure or function def. How may I solve this.


BRgds,

Since you didn't post your full traceback (you should always do that in the future), we are guessing:

local_PvFiles isn't defined prior to trying to determine its length.

The way to get the last element of a list is:

local_PvFiles[-1]

you don't need to do all the length gymnastics.

I'm no regex expert, so I'll leave that part to someone else but if the filenames are a fixed format, you don't need regex at all to extract the version. If it is a completely variable format, then you would.
