Christoph, Indeed, adding the appropriate directory to my path was all that was needed.

This looks like the PostgreSQL C interface (libpq.dll) is not installed or its directory (usually C:\Programs\PostgreSQL\8.1\bin) is not in your Windows PATH. > I am also curious about "classic PyGreSQL" vs "DB-API 2.0 compliant". > I'm not necessarily concerned about being able to use the same API to > connect to multiple different database systems. Any recommendations? Using DB-API has the advantage that you can can not only easily change the database, but also the database driver. The classic interface offers some interesting low-level and high-level methods that DB-API does not provide. Try experimenting with both to find out which you like more. -- Christoph _______________________________________________ PyGreSQL mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.vex.net/mailman/listinfo/pygresql _______________________________________________ PyGreSQL mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.vex.net/mailman/listinfo/pygresql
