IOError "no such file or folder" even though files are present

I wrote a script in Python 2.6.2 that scans a directory for SVG's and resizes them if they are too large. I wrote this on my home machine (Vista, Python 2.6.2) and processed a few folders with no problems. Today, I tried this on my work computer (XP SP2, Python 2.6.2) and I get IOErrors for every file, even though files are in the directory. I think I've tried everything, and am unsure where to go from here. I am a beginner so this may be something simple. Any help would be appreciated.

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
import os
import tkFileDialog

#--------------------------------------
#~~~variables

max_height = 500
max_width = 428
extList = ["svg"]

def landscape_or_portrait():
    resize_count +=1
    if float(main_width_old)/float(main_height_old) >= 1.0:
        print "picture is landscape"
        resize_width()  
    else:
        print "picture is not landscape"
        resize_height()
    return

def resize_height():
    print "picture too tall"
    #calculate viewBox and height
    viewBox_height_new = max_height
    scaleFactor = (float(main_height_old) - max_height)/max_height
    viewBox_width_new = float(main_width_old) * scaleFactor
    #calculate main width and height
    main_height_new = str(viewBox_height_new) + "px"
    main_width_new = str(viewBox_width_new) + "px"

It looks to me like you are missing a os.path.join(path, tfile) to get the full path to the file you want to open. Currently it should only work for files in the current directory.

Perhaps it's a security issue? Perhaps you don't have the rights to create files in the folder
