daniel,

thanks for the response.  i am new to python.  i inherited a project 
that was written in python from someone who left the company.  he was 
also the only python programmer here.

i have been trying to find information about those __init__.py/pyc 
files that i see laying around and how they relate to running the 
python scripts.  all of them are empty except for the compiled ones.  
can you point me to a source that will give me an explanation about the 
purpose of this file, __init__.py.  i have been unable to find an 
explanation for this file.

the test directory was missing the __init__.py file.  i put an empty 
one in there and my script ran just fine.

thanks,
