As far as I know, Windows is treated a little differently than other operating systems - since Windows itself is UCS2, Python will only support UCS2. pywin32 would break in all kinds of ways, as we assume a Python Unicode object's data can be passed directly to Unicode win32 functions, whereas UCS4 would require encoding into a temporary buffer. OTOH, if you are simply asking about "side by side", then using a UCS2 and UCS4 build on the same machine should be no different to 2 UCS2 builds on the same machine. Cheers, Mark

We want to make interoperability possible with other applications which may support python in a different unicode version. Is it possible to use pywin with different python builds (UCS2 and UCS4) installed on the same machine ? Thanks for your help. -mab
