Paraview folks,
   I am building an application in Python and I'm hoping to use paraview's 
python 
scripting abilities to generate plots from the data it produces automatically 
without 
user intervention. The code must be able to just import paraview modules and 
use 
them to produce the plots. I am currently using WindowsXP 64 bit but we have 
plans 
to port to other OS's after this works. I have downloaded and installed the 
ParaView-
3.10.1-Win64-x86.exe from 
http://www.paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.html 
. However, typing into the regular Python interpereter (or my source) :

import paraview.simple
import paraview

all produce the error
ImportError: No module named paraview

I added a windows system environment variable called PYTHONPATH with value 
PYTHONPATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\ParaView 3.10.1\bin;C:\Program Files 
(x86)\ParaView 3.10.1\lib\paraview-3.10

But it still does not work, still produces the same errors. All the examples I 
could find 
online are for linux/mac so I'm stuck. I also tried adding to PATH or 
PYTHON_PATH 
but the problem persists.
What must I change so my Python codes can import and use paraview modules?
