Thanks for the help. . .I created a directory named "mysite" then
opened a command prompt from the "mysite" directory. In the prompt I
put "django-admin.py startproject mysite". The output i get is
lengthy, but here it is. . .

Usage: django-admin.py subcommand [options] [args]

Options:
  -v VERBOSITY, --verbosity=VERBOSITY
                        Verbosity level; 0=minimal output, 1=normal
out
                        2=all output
  --settings=SETTINGS   The Python path to a settings module, e.g.
                        "myproject.settings.main". If this isn't
provid
                        DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable
wil
                        used.
  --pythonpath=PYTHONPATH
                        A directory to add to the Python path, e.g.
                        "/home/djangoprojects/myproject".
  --traceback           Print traceback on exception
  --version             show program's version number and exit
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

Type 'django-admin.py help <subcommand>' for help on a specific
subcomm

Available subcommands:
  cleanup
  compilemessages
  createcachetable
  dbshell
  diffsettings
  dumpdata
  flush
  inspectdb
  loaddata
  makemessages
  reset
  runfcgi
  runserver
  shell
  sql

  sqlcustom
  sqlflush
  sqlindexes
  sqlinitialdata
  sqlreset
  sqlsequencereset
  startapp

And that's it. Thanks again for the help. . .Cheers
