Probably, you have forgotten one 'fit' dir. Your running path should look:

C:\Python22\MyStuff\AstroPy3>python fit\fit\FileRunner.py CivilDateAT.htm
CivATOut.htm

or

C:\Python22\MyStuff\AstroPy3\fit>python fit\FileRunner.py CivilDateAT.htm
CivATOut.htm


Also, your package should meet certain requirements:
1) it must have __init__.py in its dir.
2) it must be a subdir of your running script or be present in your sys.path

ALL subpackages should have a __init__.py file.

If you wish to run your script from a package, you have to create a 'run'
script, something like

#!/usr/bin/env python

import fit

fit.fit.FileRunner.main()

or something like that.

Good Luck!
