Import question

[Fred Lionetti]

Hi everyone,

Hopefully a quick question for someone out there--

If I have a file at C:\Python23\myf older\mymodule. py

why can't I say (from python prompt or anywhere else):
import myfolder.mymodu le ????

When I try to do that I get the following error message:
ImportError: No module named myfolder.mymodu le

Yet, myfolder really is in that location, and the sys.path includes
"C:\Python2 3\"

If I try appending "C:\Python23\my folder" to sys.path then I can say import
mymodule, and it works--but that creates other problems with the file I'm
working with.

Any ideas????

Thanks,
Fred

It might help to put an empty file named __init__.py into 'myfolder'
