[PythonCE] building a 'simple' example

[Smit, M.C.]

Hi

The path is in sys.path. The DLL is next to the test programme that tries to import it, it name is simple.dll, andthe error is raised on: import simple

ImportError: DLL load failed:The specified module could not be found.

I'm running an winXP computer 
and an Ipac PDA winMobile 2003

thanks for your thoughts

Hi,

Where did you put the DLL? What is it called? What were the commands that
