Interesting! Is this a system that was originally Windows 2000 and has been repeatedly upgraded? Otherwise, it's unusual any more to have a Windows directory called C:\WINNT. Explorer on the newer systems (XP and above) hides, by default, the contents of the Windows system directory. You can adjust that option in Explorer, in Tools, Folder Options, View. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
