[python-win32] Getting Started

[Stacey Gamble]

Hi Tim:

I've just upgraded my ArcView to 9.2 with Python version 2.4.  I'm
hoping that might fix my problem.  Thanks for responding.  SWG

What version of the pywin32 stuff did you install, and where did you get
it?  This key is optional, and this read should be wrapped in a
try/except block.

Python 2.1 is very, very old.  You would be much better served by
upgrading to 2.4
