open folder

[sumanth shenoy]

hi guys i am new to python and i just trying out basic stuff 

i am trying to open a folder in the server with a click of a button 

i tried this 

import subprocess

def File ():

   subprocess.Popen('explorer "\\**server\D\***\fbx\**\**"') 

but it only works for local drives is there a way to make it work from any path

thank you for your time

Does that 'explorer' command work outside of Python?

Not entirely sure what you want to achieve but have a look at glob for searching for files/folders: https://docs.python.org/2/library/glob.html

I think you need to escape those backslashes
