file/folder naming

[ecu_jon]

im trying to use wxpython to get a source file/files, then a
destination folder to write them to. the file and folder picker works.
the problem is, actually copying (actually shutil.copy2() ). i get an
except error, as if the destination file name is not correct. looking
at the print lines the destination looks right. i used os.path.join to
join the folder path and the filebasename. i can hear it now, that
this belongs on the wxpython page, and i will be posting there as
well. but, im fairly certain its something in this "for files in
sourcepath:"

import wx,os,string,shutil,getpass
from datetime import *

def backupfiles():
    dialog = wx.FileDialog(None, "Choose a source file :", style=1 |
wx.MULTIPLE )
    if dialog.ShowModal() == wx.ID_OK:
        sourcepath = dialog.GetPaths()
    else:
        dialog.Destroy()
    dialog = wx.DirDialog(None, "Choose a destination directory :",
style=1 )
    if dialog.ShowModal() == wx.ID_OK:
        destpath = dialog.GetPath()
    else:
        dialog.Destroy()
    print "sourcepath is :",sourcepath
    print "destpath is :",destpath
    for files in sourcepath:
        print "destpath
is :",os.path.join(destpath,os.path.basename(files))
        try:
            shutil.copy2(sourcepath,
os.path.join(destpath,os.path.basename(files)))
        except:
            print "error file"

        self.button1.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.button1Click)

whole folder"))
