If you wish to do it in a gui rather than at the commandline then you could try the python package manager at : http://sourceforge.net/projects/pythonpkgmgr/ You will need to download it from source. In the Options Dialog, there is a dropdown list that allow you to easily change from one version of python to another. Regards David -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
