Lucky me... NOT...:-) I got: "'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file" (without the quotes of course) I am still worried that none of this will transfer to my GUI after I get it working. Is there a way to do this using the code that I started so that it will work without the command prompt? I got part of it to work, as detailed earlier, but... not the second round of zips. Maybe it can't be done? Thanks for the continued help. either way, once I get it to finally work, it will save me time.
