<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">This is one of those ‘the answer is obvious once you have read some one’s posting’ posts. Pro Fit refused to accept the path to my latest Enthought installation
(which is 2.7). I have never been fully clear about the directories used by the Enthought distribution – this has changed over the years. I then found another path to Python 2.7 more or less where I thought it should be and pro Fit did accept that, so I used
that. It turns out my recent Enthought installation is just fine, it has pandas, but it is 64 bit. The other Python 2.7 is an old installation and is 32 bit – it does not have pandas. Davide Guarisco has posted this diagnosis and a fix, which is to maintain
two Python installations; a 32 bit one for pro Fit, and a 64 bit one for routine use. So it looks like I should have paid more attention to the evolution of the Enthought installations and until there is 64 bit support I’ll need to manage two installations
(which from what Davide has written should not be dreadfully difficult).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">On another matter, during the analysis of this problem I really missed having some kind of console on which Python running within pro Fit could give responses
etc.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

that, pro Fit should tell you if it is able to work with the selected executable (it must be a 32 bit executable, and it must be Python 2.6 or 2.7. If pro Fit says that it can use that executable, restart pro Fit. Now pro Fit should use Enthought’s Python.<o:p></o:p></p>
