[python-win32] raw string

[Anand K Rayudu]

Hi all,
 
i have com interface which  returns a string. in my case it is returning  
"E:\data\models\neonmodel.dat"
if i print the value \n is interpted as new line charcter and if  i use os.access(file,os.R_OK) it returns false.

How can i specify not to consider the string in raw mode

in static string i would have used it as r"E:\data\modes\neonmodel.dat"
but if i have that already as variable, how can i do it

Thanks for help


my python code looks like this

from win32com.client import Dispatch

aa=Dispatch("MyExecutive.MyAPIs")
file=aa.getFileName()
import os
#file=r"E:\data\models\model.dat" // if i uncomment it is ok
if(os.access(file,os.R_OK)==True): // access files as it is not in raw
   aa.readFile(file)


Regards
Anand
