hello,
yes, I would also try adding a wild card in the dir search
>> for dir in glob.glob(MainFolder + '01\*'):
to check if this is helps, in an interpreter (rather than script) try
dirs = glob.glob(MainFolder + '\01\*'):
print dirs
if you get "[]" then this was not the answer, but if you get a list of
directories, then this should work.
Well, it should work with the correction
>> for ncfile in glob.glob(dir+'\*.nc'):
Cheers,
Andre
