I have problem this similar to the situation currently being discussed here. I have some CAD files in differerent folders arranged in sequence of years like,
C:\CADfile\1990_dwg
C:\CADfile\1991_dwg
C:\CADfile\1992_dwg
C:\CADfile\1993_dwg
C:\CADfile\1994_dwg
C:\CADfile\19950_dwg
etc.  upto the year 2012
The case is this I want my python script to iterate through these folders, create a geodatabase under each name folder and the populate the geodatabase with the feature classes store in the folder
I have been a able to produce a script that can create the geodatabase of the single file and populate it with feature datasets  but the problem is I can not ghet the script to go through all the folders and do the same thing.
Please I will be glad to get help on this.
Here is my scripts so far
&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;#Import system modules
import arcpy
import glob
import os
# Set workspace and variables
for year in range(1990,2009): # 1990-2009
inFolder =  r&quot;c:\data\cadfiles\{0}_dwg&quot;.format(year) # 1990_dwg
gdbName = &quot;d{0}.gdb&quot;.format (1990,2009) # d1990.gdb
arcpy.env.workspace = gdbName
# Create a FileGDB for the fds
arcpy.CreateFileGDB_management(&quot;C:/data&quot;, &quot;d{0}.gdb&quot;.format(year))
reference_scale = &quot;1500&quot;
for file in glob.glob(r&quot;N:\{0}_dwg&quot;):
outDS = arcpy.ValidateTableName(os.path.splitext(&quot;d&quot; + os.path.basename(file))[0])
arcpy.CADToGeodatabase_conversion(file, gdbName, outDS, reference_scale)&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi Guys,</p><p>I have problem this similar to the situation currently being discussed here.

There are tons of similar programs for windows, and some are even good enough, but I&#039;m not up-to-date on that software - so cannot advise.
You could write the required python script by, e.g., first creating two dicts of {filename: filesize}, and then comparing them to find identical filesizes (and yield the two filenames). This is a suboptimal approach, but that probably doesn&#039;t matter for low numbers of files; for higher numbers, you would want a different approach. (One more suboptimal idea, but slightly better, would be to populate the 1st dict with {size:name}, and then iterate over the files in the 2nd dir, checking for &quot;size in dict&quot;.)]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I guess fdupes could be compiled/run in cygwin.</p><p>There are tons of similar programs for windows, and some are even good enough, but I&#8217;m not up-to-date on that software &#8211; so cannot advise.</p><p>You could write the required python script by, e.g., first creating two dicts of {filename: filesize}, and then comparing them to find identical filesizes (and yield the two filenames).

The best script would merge these to folders together and delete duplicates, based on name or size, or name and size.

pls help me to do this simple program:
Drive:F:/
folder:X
files:x1.txt,x2.txt,x3.txt,x4.txt,x5.txt(5 seperate files)
I have to read all these files quickly, so i had generated a list as list.txt=[&#039;F:/X/x1.txt&#039;,&#039;F:/X/x2.txt&#039;,F:/X/x3.txt&#039;,F:/X/x4.txt&#039;,F:/X/x5.txt&#039;]
now i have to read list.txt file and i want to generate listres.txt file by &#039;w&#039;
where
listres.txt=[&#039;F:/X/x1res.txt&#039;,&#039;F:/X/x2res.txt&#039;,F:/X/x3res.txt&#039;,F:/X/x4res.txt&#039;,F:/X/x5res.txt&#039;]
i expect to write result of X1.txt file in X1res.txt alone(X2.txt file in X2res.txt file)  but unfortunately it is writing result of all x1+x2+x3+x4+x5 files in x1res files and same result in x2res files how to seperate it?]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hiiii<br

Maybe also make it recursive (see comment 10), if you have PDB files in sub-directories.
@Adam: just use the proper filename mask. For example, *.* should not include any files which start with a dot (like .DS_Store). Another way is to check the filename in Python, e.g.
&lt;pre&gt;
if filename == &#039;.DS_Store&#039;:
continue  # skip the file
&lt;/pre&gt;

Can&#039;t begin to tell you how helpful it is. One question: Is there a way to have it loop through only visible files? For example, in every folder, Mac OSX creates a .DS_Store file. When I iterate through, it picks up this file, which gets included in any subsequent arrays, lists, etc.
Thanks]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First off, this is great! Can&#8217;t begin to tell you how helpful it is.
