I must have slept a while Python 3.4.10 (default, Jul 14 2019, 14:41:03) [MSC v.1600 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Actually I did have 3..4.3 when I asked the question (first time) because I could only find 3.4.10 as src and did not feel I was able to compile it with any certainty ;->) I have since moved up (a little) so only ~4 years old, I then updated pip from 9.x to 19.1 reason its an old version is it's an old PC (XpPro), if I start to get passable at this I will try it on my Ubuntu box which is running 22.04 (latest LTS) and 23.04, (23.10 daily builds soon) I took a look and it seems I "may" have to play a little to get IDLE on (if it's not in the normal repo's) I seem to have managed to sort "PythonPath / sys.path" the environment variable is working, so I can now import my_work without any other hassle, which is good, now I find that some of the files which worked a treat from GUI, Editor (F5) or terminal but don't do the same once saved and imported later, I'm sure it's me, I have come from VB/VBA, Delphi and a (very) little C++, and am still working through the python tutorial, trying not to skip ahead (ok I did skip "Hello World" :->) so I may end up asking some (senior moment) newbie questions, I will try hard to work it out myself first Thanks to all who got me thus far Grizz -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
