Do you perhaps have 2 different script engines here? It appears you are creating "_scriptEngine" and executing the code against that engine. But you are getting the sys module from "scriptEngine" and setting the variable against the script engine. If I change these to both use the same script engine it works and I can access the variable using "sys.mySysVar".

I set a variable in SysModule using this: Dictionary<String, Object> options = new Dictionary<String, Object>(); options.Add("ShowClrExceptions", true); options.Add("ExceptionDetail", true); options.Add("Debug", true); ScriptEngine _scriptEngine = Python.CreateEngine(options); ScriptScope _scriptScope = _scriptEngine.CreateScope(); ScriptScope sysScope = scriptEngine.GetSysModule(); sysScope.SetVariable("mySysVar", true); _scriptEngine.ExecuteFile("something.py", _scriptScope); Now, I want to read variable "mySysVar" from inside the script "something.py". How can I do that? I tried ------------ import sys if sys.mySysVar: ... ------------- and also ------------- sys["mySysVar"] ------------- but they don't work. Thanks in advance Ernesto Cullen
