Hi! Try this: import shutil shutil.copyfile("file_to_copy_path", "destination_path") I think, this works to. Paula Mangas On Thu, 26 Jul 2001, Gitte Wange wrote:

Hi!
You can do something like this:
f = open("file_to_copy") text = f.read() f.close() f = open("new_file_name", "w") f.write(text) f.close()
I hope this helps, Paula Mangas
Thank you. This could be a solution .. but python has a "built-in" function called copy. Thought I could use that ..

Hello out there ..
I know this is a python question (please forgive me) but I couldn't find an answer in the python docs.
The problem is very simple - I need to make a copy of a file in the filesystem in a pythhon module.
I have tried with this: import copy
<a lot of code> copy(file_reposit, new_fnreposit) </a lot of code>
I get this error:
Zope Error
Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource.
Error Type: TypeError Error Value: call of non-function (type module)
If I don't use the import copy Zope just returns an error saying that copy isn't defined.
How do I then make a copy of a file ???
