<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=625334408-28042005>I have been trying
to get Python Mapscript up and running on MS Windows XP, but I haven't succeeded
yet. I have downloaded the binaries at <A
href="http://hobu.stat.iastate.edu/mapserver/">http://hobu.stat.iastate.edu/mapserver/</A>.
When I start Python from the directory in which I have installed Python,
Mapscript works fine. However, if I start Python from another directory, I get
the following error message when I try import mapscript at the Python command
line: "The procedure entry point <A
href="mailto:?SetnextByIndex@OGRLayer@@UAEHJ@Z">?SetnextByIndex@OGRLayer@@UAEHJ@Z</A>
could not be located in the dynamic link library gdal12.dll.".
