Anyway, that got django-admin.py running right. -Cody On Jan 10, 12:25 am, Rex <rex.eastbou...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Jan 9, 11:51 pm, "Karen Tracey" <kmtra...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > On Fri, Jan 9, 2009 at 10:55 PM, Rex <rex.eastbou...@gmail.com> wrote: > > ... > > > I Googled around, and the only thing I found was this comment: > > > > "you have to change the file association from (cant remember) to "%1″ > > > %* and it should work" > > > Source: > > >http://i.justrealized.com/2008/04/08/how-to-install-python-and-django... > > > > Does anyone understand what this means? > > > I do, but I don't have Vista so I can't give you step-by-step instructions > > for changing the file associations there.
