@cvp thanks. That fixed things. I had been trying with the individual files in the External Files area, but once I placed the whole folder in External Files, everything works, even with the ‘dummy.py’ name. Much appreciated.

RE: ModuleNotFoundError when run from External Filesposted in Pythonista
Definitely no upper case and in the same folder, and it does works from my Mac. I can also make it work from Pythonista’s iCloud Script Library area, just not from a folder accessed by External Files.

ModuleNotFoundError when run from External Filesposted in Pythonista
If I try and run programs from an external file, it gives me a ModuleNotFoundError, even though the module is in the same folder and it runs perfectly from my Mac. For example,
File 1: (dummy.py) has this line:
print('Hello')File 2: (dummy2.py) has this line:
import dummyWhen I run File 2, on my Mac I get 'Hello' printed. On Pythonista, I get ModuleNotfoundError.
Can someone help me understand what is going on?
