Hello,
I was getting an error in Cocreate instance while trying to
access "Outlook" using python script. The python script looks like:
from win32com.client import Dispatch
session = Dispatch("MAPI. session")
session.Logon(' OUTLOOK') # MAPI profile name
inbox = session.Inbox
When I tried to execute the script I got the error:
IDispatch = pythoncom.CoCre ateInstance(IDi spatch, None, clsctx,
pythoncom.IID_I Dispatch)
com_error: (-2147221005, 'Invalid class string', None, None)
Can any one guide me in obtaining a solution
for this.
Thanks in advance,
Venu.

Do you have Outlook installed with the CDO components?
(I think it became an option unchecked by default
at some point).
If not, then you won't have the MAPI.Session class
registered.
As a double-check, look in the registry for:
HKEY_CLASSES_RO OT\MAPI.Session

May I know how to check whether my Outlook is installed with CDO
components?
There is no entry in my Registry Database with the name MAPI.Session.
Thank you,
Venu.

Well, that pretty much *is* the check. Get hold of your Office
install disk and do a reinstall and look out for suboptions
of Outlook saying things like "CDO" or "Collaborat ion Data
Objects". Tick the box and click [Install].

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
