ADO and Makepy

[Alv Mart]

Hi,

I ran makepy for ADO. After I installed a new version of python I have this
error:

Do you know why could I have this error?

from ADODB import Connection,Recordset conn = Connection()

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ?

File "C:\Python2\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\__init__.py", line 479,
in __init__

if oobj is None: oobj = pythoncom.new(self.CLSID)

TypeError: Only strings and iids can be converted to a CLSID.

I have run makepy again but it does not work

>>> from ADODB import Connection,Recordset

You shouldn't need to import the makepy generated module manually. You
should just be able to use win32com.client.Dispatch("ADO.Connection").

This will magically use a Connection class from the makepy module. You
can also avoid manually running makepy, by calling gencache.EnsureModule
- run "makepy.py -i" for details.
