the suggestion to add the optional second parameter fixed the problem, spawnl now works on the Win 7 computer I'm responsible for (with Python 2.2). So the suggested cause seems to be right.
FWIW, although it's not obvious, the args parameter to spawnl is intended to become the sys.args (in Python terms) of the newly-spawned process. Which is why the first element is expected to be the name of the process. It took me some time to realise this myself :) Anyway, glad we could be of help.
