Sorry to followup my own question, but I ran for p,q in enumerate(sys.path): print p, q and got: 0 C:\Documents and Settings\Laptop\My Documents\JN_PythonPgms 1 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25\Lib\idlelib 2 C:\WINDOWS\system32\python25.zip 3 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25\DLLs 4 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25\lib 5 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25\lib\plat-win 6 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25\lib\lib-tk 7 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25 8 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25\lib\site-packages 9 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25\lib\site-packages\win32 10 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25\lib\site-packages\win32\lib 11 C:\Program Files\~P-folder\Python25\lib\site-packages\Pythonwin Does every Windows user have: 2 C:\WINDOWS\system32\python25.zip in their sys.path? What's the point of having a zip in the path? Also, looking in C:\WINDOWS\system32\ I don't actually have a file called python25.zip, but I do have one called python25.dll - so has something gone wrong in creation of sys.path? -- Jeremy C B Nicoll - my opinions are my own. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
