It looks like you're on a Mac, so are you running Jaguar or Panther?=20
Did you follow the install instructions at:

http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/installation.html

It appears that a copy of Python was installed as part of OpenOffice=20
and that is what is being used instead of the system python, but I=20
haven't used OpenOffice on the Mac so I don't know what its installer=20
does. When you type "which python" in the Terminal on a Mac OS X=20
(Panther) system you should get back /usr/bin/python.

Does wxPython run correctly? Again, on a panther system the wxPython=20
and wx packages should have been installed into /Library/Python/2.3 and=20=

if you ran the PythonCard setup.py script as detailed in the=20
installation instructions it should have gone in that directory as=20
well. It definitely should not be at a top-level directory such as=20
/PythonCard.
