Hello, I am attempting to package Python with a .Net application and would like to run the packaged version of python that I have using Python for .Net. In other words, python will not be officially installed on the client but will be reference with the .Net package. Is there a way to set PythonEngine to use a specific location for PythonHome. It seems obvious that the Python.Engine.PythonHome property (Read/Write property) could be written with the folder containing the Python folder I would like to use but when I try writing the property, initializing the engine and then read the PythonHome it says the property contains "-4z". Also... it does not work. After initialization I try to import a module and it returns a null value. Here is some code: PythonEngine.PythonHome = "c:\\Python25"; //Not officially installed. Just a folder containing a python implementation. PythonEngine.Initialize(); PyObject appModule = PythonEngine.ImportModule("app"); //app.py found in root folder of .Net application PyObject startApplication = appModule.GetAttr("startApplication"); PyObject app = startApplication.Invoke() This does work with an officially installed version of Python (barring the change in PythonHome) but does not work just putting the Python25 folder in the given location and referencing it with the PythonHome property. So, is this the correct use of the property? Is there any way to accomplish what I am attempting to do? Thanks in advance for any insight. Chris
