Hi:

Python 2.2 is installed in f:\ptython22, as are my .py program files.  I
can run my programs with no problem from the f:\python22 directory.

However, when I try to run them from another drive\directory, I get a
"can't open file foo.py" error.

I tried setting the path and PYTHONPATH environment as shown below.

What do I need to do to make this work ?   Thanks,

E:\WINNT4>path
PATH=f:\python22;f:\python22\lib

E:\WINNT4>set PYTHONPATH
PYTHONPATH=f:\python22\lib

E:\WINNT4>f:\python22\python foo.py

f:\python22\python: can't open file 'foo.py'

E:\WINNT4>
