When OpenOffice is in the current path, uno seems to be able to find them. If you look at the windows documentation for uno: http://udk.openoffice.org/python/python-bridge.html even the hello world examples have you switch to the Open Office program directory. Later on in the documentation, it explains this (pay close attention the third paragraph below): "Unlike the Java or C++ UNO binding, the python UNO binding is not self contained. It requires the C++ UNO binding and additional scripting components. These additional components currently live in the shared libraries typeconverter.uno, invocation.uno, corereflection.uno, introspection.uno, invocadapt.uno, proxyfac.uno, pythonloader.uno (on windows typeconverter.uno.dll,...; unix typeconverter.uno.so,...). Often, the components for setting up an interprocess connection are also required. These are uuresolver.uno, connector.uno, remotebridge.uno, bridgefac.uno shared libraries. The path environment variables ( LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Unix, PATH on Windows) must point to a directory, where the core UNO libraries, the above listed components and the pyuno shared library is located. (On Unix, there exists two files: libpyuno.so containing the code and a pyuno.so which is needed for importing a native python module). Additionally, the python module uno.py, unohelper.py and pythonloader.py must be located in a directory, which is listed in the PYTHONPATH environment variable.

Lets just check its finding the PYTHONPATH setting OK. Exit Python, start a new cmd window and restart python. Now import sys and print sys.path Does your PYTHONPATH folder show up in the list? If so the only other things I can think of are 1) Create a simple Python module in the same folder as uno and try importing that to see if you definitely can find it and prove the folder permissions aren't the issue. 2) Check that there are no modules called uno in any other of the sys.path folders that are masking the OOo one. After that I'm kind of stumped. Alan G ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Re: [Tutor] Import error in UNO
"muhamed niyas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote import uno > > I am not getting the promt >>> after importing that. OK, That suggests a problem in the uno module itself. Yet ISTR you said you could import if you changed to the directory and ran Python there? Can you try that again just to confirm CD to the OOo folder that contains uno and startt python and try the import again.

Re: [Tutor] Import error in UNO
Thanks for your kind response. I tried to include the path 'C:\Program
Files\OpenOffice.org 2.0\program' in PYTHONPATH. but now i didnt get
any error message but its hanging while importing. Pls advice me to correct
this.

For a less intrusive approach you can
import sys
sys.path.append("path of containing folder here")

You need to set the module folder in your PYTHONPATH environment variable.

PYTHONPATH is the environment variable you need, it is one way to tell the interpreter where to look for imports.
