to the forums..

It's clear from your post that you're running Python on a Windows platform.
The error occurred here is caused by the Python interpreter not being able to find the pywintypes26.dll file, which is located in C:\Python26 directory, the reason behind this is the PATH environment variable not defining the exact location of the Python installation directory.

To add the Python installed folder to your path variable, follow these simple steps:
1) Open command prompt [Start > Run > CMD].
2) Check the existing environment settings for the PATH variable using this "echo %PATH%".
3) Now copy/paste the following text without the quotes & press enter "path = %PATH%;C:\Python26"
4) Check the changes we did above worked or not using "echo %PATH%". This should show up the Python directory along with the original system paths.

Now try running the Python scripts, they should work..
Another workaround for this is to copy all the DLL's from the Python's BIN directory to the C:\Windows\System32 directory, but I'd suggest avoiding this..
