I'm installing it for all users. The application that I want to run is a
little script that generates a CSV from a web database, is not too
complicated. It wouldn't be a problem for mi to use version 2.6 of Python as
long as the binaries work for windows (which I suppose they do) could you
tell me the name of this other option?? or any other advice??
Thank yo a lot for the quick replies.
