Hello Patrick, Thanks for reply!

I didn't do anything really, except I have had installed Python 2.5 on the same system before. Maybe this left DLLs lying around and the compiled matplotlib uses those old DLLs? > This was the original error for me and I had to modify the > setupext.py to look for the tcl/tk 8.5 includes (which I had to > manually add to win32_static). What happens if you try: > > import matplotlib.pyplot as plt > x = range(0,100) > y = range(0,100) > plt.plot(x,y) > plt.show() I have used win32_static_vs (I have VC++ 9.0 installed) and it just worked! It displayed the graph and everything. > As for the error you specifically mentioned, have you checked to make > sure that the correct dll exists? This error typically happens to me > when the dll didn't build properly (if at all). How do I do that? After this successful build, I can't find any DLL in the 'build' folder. I have unpacked matplotlib-0.98.5.2.win32-py2.6.exe installer and it doesn't contain any dll either.
