I am running wxPython 2.3.2.1 with Python 2.2.1 on Win2000 v 5.0.2195.
In the last 30 days or so I have had to reinstall MS Office four times.
Did not have any problems prior to running wxPython. The problem I am
having is that upon starting a MS application say Word, it starts
searching for a CD to install something. Once this happens, all MS
Office applications are inoperative. Upon reinstalling everything
works fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Sorry, none. This is the first time I've heard of such a thing happening so
I doubt that wxPython has anything to do with it.

This is, AFAIK, a "feature" (MS word for bug ) of MS Office 2000. I had an old machine a few years ago that suffered the same annoying problems. I eventually wiped the hard-disk and re-installed everything to fix the bug. This machine here works fine with both 2.3.3pre5 (and all the devel versions since well before 2.3.2.1) without triggering the re-install bugbear (though, in fairness, I seldom use MSOffice, so it could be I just haven't hit the problem yet). Strangely, I recently downloaded an OpenOffice.org test release that exhibited almost exactly the same symptoms as MS's office did. I reverted back to 1.0.0 and everything was fine.
Good luck,
Mike
