Problem solved.
When I set up python on the Windows machine, I simply copied over the
directories and everything in them from my Linux machine, including all of the
python bytecode *.pyc files. Trying to run a script with those *.pyc files
present was causing the problem as they were compiled on my Linux machine
originally.
The matplotlib call works fine when I move the scripts to a clean folder.
Thanks
Alex

Hello,
I've installed the following Python packages on a Windows XP machine:
Python 2.6.5
Python 2.6 numpy-1.4.1
Python 2.6 matplotlib-0.99.3 [installer - matplotlib-0.99.3.win32-py2.6]
Python and Numpy work correctly. Matplotlib also works and as a test I tried
successfully the following on the python interpretor:
from matplotlib.pyplot import *
plot([1,2,3])
show()
A graph then appears and thus so far so good.
However, when I try to run a certain python script, a problem occurs when
importing from matplotlib:

The error is that your Windows XP box does not have the wxPython module
installed for Windows.

I hope that helps,
