Hi,
Thanks for the quick and comprehensive reply. I tried everything
suggested and all appears OK.
The version of wx PythonCard is reporting I have is 2.4.2.4. I did a
search in 'site-packages' for any files containing that string. The only
ones were either text files or html. So how does the PythonCard install
script get that string?
The only other package I have in the folder is kinterbasdb.
I accepted wxPython's offer to convert py to pyc on installation. Could
that have caused problems? I'm wondering whether I shouldn't download
the non-Unicode version. As I am on dial up, I am hesitating.
I suspect it is wxPython's problem as it won't run its own demo -
reports the 'No handler found for image type' error. I was hoping not
to go to another mail list as I get rather overwhelmed by mail already,
Norman
