I have no idea what are you doing in your code or if the following has
something to do with your problem, but sometimes it good to know, that
Windows requires Unicode strings as parameter and giving full path file
names is always better than to rely on some default mechanisms.

I recently upgraded from ActivePython 2.2.2 to ActivePython 2.3.2 and I'm running into an issue importing the win32com.client module. Before installing the new version, I made sure to properly remove old version (as well as the mx libraries I had installed). I then installed the new version as a user with the Administrator role. I know I'm technically not supposed to install to a directory with a space in the name, but it worked fine for...

Hi, I've been going over the Quick Start to Client side COM and Python and many other sources, but cannot find an example that will get my com/ActiveX .ocx USB device driver imported. The Excel and Word examples run fine. win32com.client.Dispatch("Excel.Application") etc., but how does one know the ("<foo>.<bar>") to type in? Excel looks only vaguely like "Excel.Application" in the com browser.

Hello, I've installed Python 2.4 and the win32 extensions, using administrator rights, under Windows XP in "C:\Programme". As this is a directory without spaces I didn't expect any problems. But now I can't _use_ win32com as a normal user, because normal users can't write there: PythonWin 2.4.1 (#65, Mar 30 2005, 09:13:57) on win32.

Hi there, I am trying to launch a program called AmiBroker using the command: AB = win32com.client.Dispatch("Broker.Application") However, I have a dual-core CPU and would like to launch two instances of AmiBroker. I know it is possible to run two instances simultaneously since it is easy to do manually by double-clicking the AmiBroker.exe file twice. However, when I write two lines of code like this:

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
