Well, my educated guess is it's because PyQt4 is being compiled with VS2010, but the Python binaries are all compiled under VS2008. I've had issues before trying to use sip/PyQt4 compiled with VS2010, with Python compiled with 2008, in that strings would end up being blank or having odd crashes going from C++ to Python.<div>

</div>Honestly, I can't tell - I got that installation and was told<br>
to use it as it is. My guess is that the Python version (2.7)<br>
was simply a binary download, gotten from somewhere I have no<br>
ideas about. Is there a way to find out about that? And would<br>
that make a lot of a difference? All I can tell at the moment<br>
is that a lot of other stuff that to me looks much nore complex<br>
to me seems to work. Please keep in mind that my experience with<br>
Windows is basically non-existent, so I need quite a bit of<br>
handholding and probably will have to ask really stupid ques-<br>
tions...<br>
Thanks and best regards, Jens<br>
