Hello, I've been forced (due to the host application) to move my code to NET2.0. I also need to use the host python installation like Tom. And like Tom I'm not a professional programmer but I'm wondering if we should standardise on the Ironpython syntax for loading assemblies. That is: import clr clr.AddReferenceByPartialName("System.Windows.Forms") clr.AddReferenceByPartialName("System.Drawing") clr.AddReferenceByPartialName("IronPython") from System.Drawing import Size from System.Windows.Forms import Form, Application etc What do you think? Regards, Guy ps: I too see python for .NET as the way forward. I hope Brian still feels the same.
