I do get the difference.  I don't actually use Python 2.  I use
CodeSkulptor.  I do have Python 3 installed.  Actually I have Python 2
installed but IDLE defaults to Python 3.  So it is a pain to actually
load Python 2.


Exactly HOW are you trying to run Idle?  A default install of Py2 and Py3 in 
Windows should have
also installed Idle for each version.  In my Win7 system, they are BOTH in the 
standard menu,
you should be able to call up either one.

OT:  Side comment:  I rarely use Windows these days, maybe once every two or 
three months -- I
MUCH prefer Linux.  Among other reasons its a far better environment for 
programming.  I only
have one (active) system with Windows installed, and two others with Linux 
only.  Actually make
that three, if you count my Raspberry Pi.   :-)

I have a directory of my py files.  I right click on one of the py
files and "open with IDLE"   Windows XP

If I try to open a py file I have for Python 2 it still opens using
IDLE 3.

I don't have many py 2 files anyway.


How about running your Python 2 version of IDLE and opening your files using File->Open or CTRL-O?
