Hmmm...I'm not familiar with that DLL, but a little googling seems to indicate that you may be able to get it off your installation CD: http://www.techimo.com/forum/applications-operating-systems/76550-winxp-msgina-dll-shlwapi-dll-problem.html The link above gives the steps for XP, but Vista will probably be similar. I don't know for sure, but you may have to register the dll once you've got it copied back onto your machine. Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
