attempted relative import in non-package with Pandas
I am using python 2.6.2 64 bit with windows 8.1. I am very new to python and I have downloaded some libraries such as pandas. My main focus is not python, rather it is on the integration of some simulation software that I use with python.  This integration requires downloading some libraries (pandas, numpy, .. etc). So, I was trying to run the **init**.py associated with pandas open source library. Every time I run it I receive the following message:

Attempted relative import in non-package
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\pandas__init__.py", line 7, in <module>
    from . import hashtable, tslib, lib
value error: Attempted relative import in non-package

the hashtable, tslib, and lib files are .pyd files that are located in the same folder as the **init**.py file.

Any idea what is wrong here and what needs to be done to overcome that problem?
