Hi

I'm on my first day with python2.3 on Windows XP.  I'm able to run 
python interactively.

I've created a text file using NotePad, named it spam.py (as per 
O'REILLY Learning Python, p13)  contents as folows

import sys
print sys.argv

If I do:

 >python spam.py

it says can't open file 'spam.py'

Anyone know why?  I can open the file in NotePad without problem.

Thanks

Mike
