Hi,

I 'm getting this error when trying to create exe from python (using&nbsp; 'python setup.py py2exe --includes sip'&nbsp; as command) :

running py2exe  
 \*\*\* searching for required modules \*\*\*  
 error: compiling 'C:\Python25\lib\site-

packages\PyQt4\uic\port\_v3\ascii\_upper.py  
 ' failed  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; SyntaxError: invalid syntax (ascii\_upper.py, line 2)

i import PyQt4.uic in the python file, to load Qt's .ui file.

Thnx
