i have mine installed under c:\ also, just making sure i was not missing
something in all of the online stuff and books i am using.
as my learning script i am doing something simple, but am running into
some problems.
i am creating a script to launch apps on my w2k pro box at work.

##code snip

1 import os
2
3 #start apps
4 #os.system('start C:\WINNT\NOTEPAD.exe')
5 #os.system('start C:\WINNT\explorer.exe')
6 os.system('start "C:\Program Files\NoteTab Light\NoteTab.exe"')
7 os.system('start "C:\Reflection\tyson1.r2w"')

##end code snip

lines 4 and 5 work, but lines 6 and 7 do not. not quite sure what is going
wrong here or what i am not considering in the w2k system. also, any "good
coding" pointers any may have, please offer them.
thanks,

steve lewis
