Tim replied: The Python interpreter *is* the run-time. You need to deploy the interpreter in order to run Python scripts. Packages like py2exe allow you to that in a way that is largely transparent to the end user. Thanks Tim for your answer, what about reaching Python from within Word? What I would like is a new menu in Word, clicking on a menu item would bring up a dialog box where the user sets some parameters , clicking OK is to start the Python app. The open Word document and the parameters need to be made available to the app. Do I have to go through Visual Basic macros to do this or is there a _good_ way?!
