The two machines are both running Windows XP, the desktop is running XP Pro, the "virgin" PC is running XP embedded. I would say the biggest difference is that the embedded machine has only the py2exe executable running/installed, while the desktop has the full python24 installation. I get no build errors when compiling the executable, and all other parts of the application run correctly. I'll try the non-installed moveable python and see what happens. The idea of the executable is that in the machines first release, we didn't have time to work the bugs out of the executable, so we released with the python code ( pyc's ) intact. I didn't have this problem on the first release as we weren't interested in displaying the file version of the .dll. With this improved version of the product the request has come down to have all software package versions displayed, so that is why I am now attempting to extract the file version of the dll. Thanks again for everyone's assistance.................
