Hello RDKiters,

Just a quick thing to say that I had some problems installing the latest
2012_03 binaries on a Virtual WinXP Pro machine.
The error was deceptively familiar:

In [1]: from rdkit.Chem import AllChem as Chem
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)
C:\Documents and Settings\georgep\<ipython-input-1-395511f74b21> in
<module>()
----> 1 from rdkit.Chem import AllChem as Chem

C:\RDKit_2012_03_1\rdkit\Chem\__init__.py in <module>()
     16
     17 """
---> 18 from rdkit import rdBase
     19 from rdkit import RDConfig
     20

ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

...and it is usually attributed to not setting the PATH properly. After
make sure that this was fine, I had to use the Dependency Walker against
the rdBase.pyd, which pointed out that there were a couple of dlls missing
(msvcp100 and msvcr100). Everything was solved after the installation of MS
C++ redist package I found here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555

I hope this will prevent somebody else from wasting their morning with
troubleshooting!

Regards,

George Papadatos
