    Trying to install PythonWin 2.5 from ActiveState

    Hi, I have a couple of questions.

    I have installed PythonWin on my computer. When I click the Help->Python Manuals I receive the following message:
    Internal error in help file processing
    <class 'pywintypes.err or'>:(2,'ShellE xecute','The system cannot file the file specified.')

    Also, When I click Tools->COM Makepy Util it goes off to a totally different directory. I would expect it to go to Python25/lib/site-packages/win32com/gen_py

    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Thank you,
    BeckyT

    Hi Becky.
    Go to PythonWin View menu|Opitions. There you'll be able to change the directories on the Tools Menu tab.

        I'm glad to see that you are back, Becky. I was just wondering about you this afternoon (PST).
