I installed
(1) pythonxy2.7.2.3 (with python2.7) and
(2) pythonOCC-0.5-all-in-one.win32.py26
on windows 7 64 bit computer.
I try run pythonOCC examples in its example folder, such as the helloworld.py and got errors as follows:
ImportantError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
The error come from the line of code:
from OCC.BrepPrimAPI import *
How to fix the error? Thanks a lot!!

It has been some time ago that I used PythonOCC and I used it on Linux, so I cannot be of much help here. It sounds like you have to tell Windows where to look for the installed libraries (environment variables?). Anyhow, I recommend to post the question to the PythonOCC mailinglist. They are quite responsive.
One last suggestion. OCC itself comes with a small utility called DRAWEXE. It is a tcl/tk program that can be used to play around with a lot of the functionality provided by OCC.
Good luck!

All very impressive, but as Dennis Lee Bieber has pointed out and which
I suspected there is a binary incompatibility between the OP's Python
version and pythonOCC version. Others would be able to see this for
themselves but you insist on sending email without context. Please
don't do this.

as well as posts related to their question. It goes to use google, and
RTFM, and putting it politely to them.
I could summarize, but they have to do the real reading. I'm not
researching this, and if I was, I'd charge for the time. This is to
show that things can get complex if you don't use google, or read the
docs.
Why does the OP keep asking here, when there are answers out there.
especially on the pywin list, which Windows users are usually referred
to.
Please point out what's out of context. The links and references place
it into context if the OP finds them useful, and I believe I searched
well for them.
Would the OP like to tell me I wasn't helpful? Because now they're
probably on a search to figure out how to make these compatible, which
means more questions, and more reading.
Plus the OP said he's on 64. Read the quote from stackoverflow:
"I suspect you have the same problem I've run into. If you have a 64-bit
version of Python, it cannot load 32-bit DLLs. OpenCV currently only ships
32-bit binaries. If you want 64-bit .pyd and .dll files, you have to
compile them yourself. "
And where in here was the OP referenced to the python docs on windows:
>> http://docs.python.org/faq/windows.html
Was that out of context as well?
Let's not argue about this, I was pointing them to what I saw as the
best possible resources to overcome his current problem, and it was
all in context of the conversation as far as I'm concerned.

You installed python 2.7 and expect a 2.6 module to work with it.
That won't work. Finally, you need to install the OpenCasCade libs to be able to run PythonOCC.

I have noticed that you do not always quote what you are talking about.
Sometimes I can guess or look at another message and see what you
are talking about, but not always. This list philosophy seems to be
"quote what is relevant and trim what is not". Not on a
"go lookup the previous message to find context".

Context is not the same as explaining absolutely everything.
It means that I, the reader, can see *what* you are talking about
and what you are responding *to*.
I do agree with the stance not to spoon feed OP(s).

I was not aware that Windows users were "usually" referred anywhere.
Most referrals are on a case-by-case basis as many problems or
questions from Windows Python developers are Python questions and
not specific to pywin.

Nobody is claiming you are not helpful. I appreciate your effort,
I just do not always know what is going on in a thread especially
if I see the thread jump to something I can contribute to but now have
no context with which to help. Not to mention that the archive for
this list is searchable. Your answer is much more useful for future
searchers if you leave some context for someone reading this.

It is in context of the "thread", but the context of the
"conversation" was lost.

And if you look at the above in gmail, you can see the ...'s that when
not clicked, won't show some of the responses I leave just above, and
it clips my signature line as well.

Not everyone uses Gmail. And not everyone runs off 100Mbit internet

First it was too little, and now it's too much.
I just tend to cut out some or all depending on the scope of the conversation.
If I just hit reply all, and send it out, it's not intentionally to
use all of the text, and utilize the extra space, it's just a
response.
If the conversation is kind of just a few people, then I trim pretty
much everything, which apparently set a guy name mark off, who I was
polite to, but I'm not going to get slammed for a few simple posting
mistakes, and more than likely a few of his aliases, or the group he
tends to cheer up with.
It's just a mailing list, lighten up because mistakes in posting will

But as a simple rule of thumb, assume that your post is going to be
read completely without any surrounding context; will it be
comprehensible?

on a big list like this. Sure, there may be only a few contributors,
but there are thousands - maybe millions - of readers.
You're not being slammed, though. What you're seeing is a community
doing its best to maintain itself. If we all sit silently, wishing our
hardest that everyone would quote nicely, cite nicely, post without
trolling, and be helpful, will it happen? (Those familiar with the
Bible may note a similarity with some comments in the epistle of
James.) There are two ways to ensure that the community upholds its
standards: Kicking out everyone who doesn't measure up, or explaining
to people and inviting them to participate. The first is a great way
to have a tiny community with no growth. The second... is what you're
seeing. :)
Of course, there's a third option, which is to simply ignore
everything and try to get on with life. That basically amounts to
kicking _yourself_ out of the community, because you'll quickly give
up on a forum in which everyone posts sloppily. And I'm sure you don't
want all the experts to do that, because you're then left with a
"blind leading the blind" mailing list... not particularly conducive
to good code!

Generally, people don't speak up until there've been several similar

democracy, but a dictatorship by the moderators. How much did I err in
their opinion of stating my opinion, in relation to the statistical

is as you describe, a monarchy whose head but seldom exercises power;
python-list/c.l.p is an anarchy - or, if you like, a true democracy.

killfile. The more people you annoy, the more people won't hear you
any more.

someone they should be listening to, because they kill filed for
propaganda, and not an actual cause(to join a group).
