The glob.glob (nice name, eh?) will let you find directories. Something like this: import glob import os GoodPoseDirs = [] ChildFind = "runtime/Libraries/Pose/*" ChildFindNorm = os.path.normpath(ChildFind) ChildList = glob.glob(ChildFindNorm) for OnePossDir in ChildList: ~if os.path.isdir(OnePossDir): ~~GoodPoseDir.append(OnePossDir) You should be able to find the last-accessed directory by using os.path.getatime(). I haven't used this one, but the Python documentation gives good detail. This function gives the time since last access, so you would run through GoodPoseDir using os.path.getatime to find the one with the shortest interval since last use. You could also copy GoodPoseDir into a TKinter listbox for user selection.
