     I don't use PY but according to the error msg i think that you must remove this carriage return and write all on same line :

Merci Benoit.

It is now able to run. I am getting a different error now, but I might be able to figure it out. 

 

The Variables object does not contain a variable with the "EXEPath" name.
But when I go in the project variables, I do see my variable there. I will work on it. Thank you.
