You're welcome. This can be due to a number of things -- one of them might be the difference between 64-bit and 32-bit -- not sure which one you are using, of course. Everything has to match -- Python, Oracle and cx_Oracle. You might be able to find something out using "Process Explorer" which will tell you what problems you have with loading a particular executable (or DLL in this case -- which is what a PYD file is in any case). Hope some of that helps!
