Summary: pywin32 installation fails: "unable to find vcvarsall.bat"
Initial Comment:
HI,
I'm trying to install pywin32-214 on an up-to-date 32bit Windows XP machine. The README says that I need MSVC7; I installed Visual C++ 2010 Express, but I do not know if that provides MSVC7. That does provide vcvarsall.bat, though. It's in C:\Program File\Microsoft Visual Studio 2010\VC.
C:\Documents and Settings\RT\Bureau\pywin32-214> setup.py install
Building pywin32 2.7.214.0
running install
running build
running build_py
running build_ext
error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat
What can I do?

Message:
You don't need the C compiler to install it - just to build it from
sources. You could try installing a binary version. To build it you need
the same compiler as used to build python itself - eg, for Python 2.6 you
need Visual Studio 2008, for 2.5 you need the earlier version. No python
versions support 2010.
