This should work fine. What precisely are you doing to execute it, and how precisely does it fail? > At this point I'm not really keen on > handing out the source files to my application, it feels unprofessional. I don't consider it unprofessional. If the software is packaged that the end user readily notices the difference - that's unprofessional. IOW, unless the user browsers your app's directory, he shouldn't even have to know that the application is written in Python. Regards, Martin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
