The problem with the first script is with the GetPath(..) routine. It's doing an extra iteration that's adding the ScriptsMenu folder to the path which should not be there. Then it adds it again before returning the path to the EvtExec() routine. But I don't know Python and I'm not sure what this code is doing.

I'll try the new version now...
