Thank you Jeffrey and Peter for help.
I added AddHandler cgi-script .py to httpd.conf
I also tried to run the test script as Peter suggested but the Apache
says( in error log)

[Tue Aug 10 08:51:32 2004] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (2)No such file
or directory: script not found or unable to stat: c:/program
files/apache group/apache/cgi-bintest.py

The name of script is test.py and is in cgi-bin (Apache subdirectory).

I tried to run the script from IE browser with the command 
http://localhost/cgi-bin/test.py

but without success. I use XP home edition.

Apache runs without problem as I could check it by inserting
http://localhost/

BTW, how can I set up a different directory for cgi scripts? For
example I would like to have all my scripts in
C:\Scripts\MyScripts

Thank you for help
