Sorry, that was meant to go to the list: What tends to happen is that something decides to automatically uncompress, or "fix" the name, so you end up with a .tgz file which actually only contains .tar data, or a .tar file which is gzipped as well. Renaming the file usually fixes this for me. Paul _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
