Cousin Max M ... 

Thanks for the reply ... 

I copied the 2 files into the  K:\Python\DLLs  folder
and tried again, but the result is the same, leading to
the same error I originally posted ...  

   python Samples/viewer.py ButtonD.jpg

     File "K:\Python\Lib\PIL\PIL\Image.py", line 37, in __getattr__
        raise ImportError, "The _imaging C module is not installed"
     ImportError: The _imaging C module is not installed

I also tried adding  K:\Python\DLLs  
to the PYTHONPATH environment variable
in the autoexec.bat file ... no luck ... 

There is a file  K:\Python\Lib\PIL\PIL.pth  
that contains only the single 3 character entry PIL ... 

I've also tinkered with this file 
trying various path combinations
with no luck ...
