[python-win32] py2exe all of it

[Rex Corrovan]

I have built and use exe's using win32com for both db access and com API 
interaction, so this part is doable.

I think what you are asking though is not going to work, you basically want 
to take all the libs, all the dll's etc, package them all up with python 
into an exe and just run python and all its stuff from one exe at work? is 
that right?

If so, I would humbly suggest that is not a good idea. I am betting there 
would be more than just performance problems.

Using py2exe, I've successfully built and deployed a Windows
executable using Python 2.4, wxPython 2.6 and win32com.
