That is an unjustified conclusion. You may be sure that the problem was not caused by a bad installation of Python or wx, but in no way have you eliminated the Python libs or wrappers from suspicion. > ...and it must be a problem somewhere else - probably with the OS - > but where? > > I replaced all the relevant dlls (except user32dll, which is always in > use it seems) - still no dice. > > How can I replace user32.dll?

Please eliminate that option from consideration. Windows constantly monitors all of the critical system files and replaces them with hidden, cached copies if they change. Do you run any real-time virus or spyware checkers? Have you tried disabling those temporarily to see if it makes a difference? You might try running HijackThis (www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/programs.php). Create a log and send it to me, and I'll see if there are any Windows hooks installed that might be interfering. -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
