Hi
I would have posted this on ProPython but nothing seems to have happened there for a very long time ...
Please don't ask why I would want to install such an old version of Python, but I have Python 2.3.1 installed anyway. Now I am looking for the corresponding PyWin32 install files. I believe they are available here https://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/ or here https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ but I cannot fathom exactly what I need to download or what to do with the download.
I am sure somebody can help ... Thanks

I can't help you with your ancient Python, but although there hasn't been a post to ProPython in a very long time, there are still 74 people subscribed!

Hi Ed
Does that include me (I registered a few minutes ago) ... maybe I'll post this question there too ...

It shows you as 'pending'.

Paul:
The horror stories of why you have to install a version of python released nearly 20 years ago is a yarn we would all likely enjoy and share sympathy with you over.
I would try this one, as it comes with a Windows installer.

That's what I have - what I want is the corresponding PyWin32 (aka PythonWin)

Ah, sorry, I misunderstood the question.
