You could try uninstalling Python and reinstalling it. Or you could do a registry hack. I did a search for what Gabriel was talking about and it looks like the key you want is found here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\classes\applications\pythonw.exe\shell \Edit with IDLE\command Mine has the following for its value: "L:\Python24\pythonw.exe" "L:\Python24\Lib\idlelib\idle.pyw" -n -e "%1" %* Make sure that the type is REG_SZ. As always, unless you know what you're doing, back up the registry (or create a restore point) before messing with it. However, I think the only thing that this hack could possibly do is mess up your Python install more if it was screwed up. Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
