HELP -- py2exe failed to build app that uses scipy.plt

[Phil Ho]

Hi,

Sorry for this lengthy message. I do appreciate if you could help,
give me some hints or workarounds etc. for this py2exe (0.2.6)
conversion problem.

I built an application under Windows NT4.0 with ActivePython 2.1.1,
SciPy-0.1 and wxPython 2.3. Basically it has:

1. An GUI in wxPython
2. Access binary data from a database that return as Numeric arrays.
3. Plot the data array using scipy.plt which is also implemented in 
   wxPython.

The app worked happily by activating 'python hat.pyw'. However, I was
unable to use py2exe to convert to an executable due to errors as
attached at end of this message. I found out the scipy.plt module that
caused the problem because py2exe will convert successfully if the
codes that use scipy.plt are commented out.

Thank you.

Phil
