my setup file has this code
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
setup(console=['outlook.py'])
i have just copied and pasted it from the tutorial available at the
py2exe site and changed the filename with mine filename.
thanks and regards

There is nothing special in executables produced by py2exe. I mean
that the debugging strategy is as always. A good start might be in
adding logging\tracing facilities both to script and the executable.
Comparing two trace files could give you some clue.
