It is a little hard to read your code but I'll try:

Your code:
BkFiles.sort(key=str.upper)
last_bk_File_Name = BkFiles[len(BkFiles)-1]

# BRgds, kNish
#
# Not clear what this is supposed to do????
# This line should cause a syntax error.

You can more easily write the second line as:

last_bk_File_Name = BkFiles[-1]
