Not that I know of. IFF the libraries export the same entrypoints without changing things, you could try just copying "python24.dll" to "python23.dll". I don't know how the Python guys are with binary compatibility, though. Might be worth a shot. On a different note, can't you have both python 2.3 *and* 2.4 on the asme system? Considering they put the version number in the filename, it seems this should be possible? //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
