Thanks for the reply Mark.
I'm aware that Python 2.4 is built with Visual Studio 7.1 rather than 6
(which 2.3 was built with).
The implication is that py2exe standalone executables are *not* being
shipped with all dependent dlls.... Which is an issue for py2exe.
It seems that *some* machines have them (installed into 'common files'
by other applications ?) and some don't. I wondered if a py2exe solution
was in order - or just something that should be noted by those who
distribute py2exe'd programs.
