Just about every processor made in the last 2 years is a 64-bit processor. Even though they have 64-bit processors, most people are still running the 32-bit version of Windows. In that case, for programming purposes, the computer should be treated as 32-bit. If your customer is using 64-bit Windows, however, things will change. On 64-bit operating systems, you should use the 64-bit version of Python. Windows x64 can run 32-bit programs but the 32-bit programs can't load the 64-bit DLLs and vice-versa so you might see an error like the one you posted.. Try using the AMD64 version of python and see if that fixes the problem for them. > > > > > On Fri, Dec 5, 2008 at 2:02 PM, jim-on-linux > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Python help, > > > > > > In September I wrote: > > > I have a number of clients running a program built > > > with python 2.5.
