Hi, Spoke too soon. Although this works in the case of importing ReportLab alone, when used along with Pisa this will fail as the pisa modules look for the ReportLab package as well and they do not find them from the zip file.
May need to modify all the pisa packages as well to include, sys.path.insert(0, 'reportlab.zip') Thanks, Arun Shanker Prasad.
