I have a need to run various python script files from a master control
script, however, I do not know the names of the scripts until runtime.
I will be getting the script names from a database.. and was thinking I
could just use the import call with the supplied name.
This does not work alas....
>>> mymod = "ptw"
>>> import mymod
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named mym
>>>
What is the prefered method of doing this type of operation?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Best Regards,
Ron
