You're welcome. Yes, your EXE is dependent on all files in the build directory. You can create an MSI that will package everything up by using bdist_msi instead of the build command.
python setup.py bdist_msi If you are using Win32GUI base you cannot do any print statements....unless you are using wxPython which catches those and creates a window -- which still doesn't look all that good. Logging is the way to go if you need that sort of thing. You can use the logging module built into Python or my cx_Logging depending on your needs.
