Is it just your editor that doesn't like it, or does it actually fail
when you run it?

How did you install it?  Remember that, if you run the installer with
Python 2.6, it will get loaded into the Python 2.6 site-packages, even
if it was the "Python 2.7 reportlab".  So, in Windows Explorer, make
sure that you see \python27\lib\site-packages\reportlab, and not just
\python26\lib\site-packages\reportlab.
