unable to import modules from other folders

C:\MyDocs needs to be in the sys.path variable for python to include
it in it's search for modules

Try this:

import sys
sys.path.append('C:\MyDocs')

If you are packaging your program for reuse or later move that folder
bear in mind it will *break*

A better method would be to place the module into site-packages OR in
the same directory as the Py script that uses it.
