About Pywin32's invoke

By reading the doc of pywin32

we can invoke COM like:

o = win32com.client.Dispatch("Excel.Application")
but is it possible to invoke some GUID directly?

If COM was going to be invoked by python, must it support IDispatch?

Yes, you can do something like
win32com.client.Dispatch('{00024500-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}')

Not neccessarily. Pythoncom has compiled-in support for many interfaces
that don't inherit from IDispatch, but it requires that someone write code
to wrap the interface.
