Ned,
Thanks for the help. I am VERY grateful for any assistance I can get
with this.
It appears that I have two issues. First is that I am not using the
system python (maybe I shouldn't be), secondly that the version of PyQt in that
directory is compiled for 64 bit. At least that is what I believe the following
is telling me… ???
Thanks,
Arana
