Read file size

Is there any way to read the size of a file? I’m writing code to allow the customer to save attachments (which are saved as BLOBs in the database), but until I actually try to save them I don’t know if they’re going to be too big for the database.

Sure:

from java.io import File myFile = File("C:\\something.txt") print "The length is ", myFile.length()

Just the ticket, Carl. Thanks!
