Ah! Something that would have been blindingly obvious had it successfully installed the shortcuts, but something I would never have worked out as it was! Many thanks. Is it worth flagging as an issue somewhere the fact that the pywin installer assumes a particular structure for the start menu, and fails to install shortcuts if it doesn't find that structure? I'm used to programs asking me where they want to put the shortcuts, and creating folders if they don't find them (creating *without* asking would, of course, a Hostile Act). -- Tim Rowe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
