hi, I am trying to run a python code in visual studio. I am getting an error 'import psspy could not be resolved'. Although my code is running. Then why I am seeing this issue? used the following:

import os
import sys
psse_dir = r"C:\Program Files\PTI\PSSE35\35.5\PSSBIN"
sys.path.append(psse_dir)
os.environ['PATH'] = os.environ['PATH'] + ';' +  psse_dir

py_dir = r"C:\Program Files\PTI\PSSE35\35.5\PSSPY37"
sys.path.append(py_dir)
os.environ['PATH'] = os.environ['PATH'] + ';' +  py_dir

import psse35
import psspy

The code works fine. The error could be related to the selection of python version in your set-up.
On the Visual Studio Code screen, click on the word "TERMINAL" on the lower menu, to activate the terminal box (behaves as a DOS windows) and then click on the version number next to "Python" on the 'new' menu on the bottom right side of the screen. Now you will see and select the right python version. For PSSe35, select python 3.7.x 64-bit. [In my setup, I use PSSe v.35.6 with python 3.9]
