Newbie Copy Question

[StacyTech]

Hi,

I'm new to Python (about 2 weeks) and I want to use the shutil module to copy files from Windows XP folders to my jump drive. My problem is that I can't figure out how to make Python deal with the spaces in Windows folder and file names. I tried putting the path in quotes (like you do at a DOS prompt) but still no good. I searched python.org and can't find an answer....any ideas?

Thanks!

Stacy

I figured out what the problem was...the folders and file names are case-sensitive! Once I changed documents and settings...blah blah blah to Documents and Settings blah blah blah it worked just fine. I'm doing some computer migrations at work and I wanted to write a frozen binary to copy all the important files automatically to my jump drive for transfer to the new PC.
