I am having some difficuly initiliazing Python as an ActiveX Scripting engine. IActiveScript and IActiveScriptParse from the component category manager return Python.AXScript.2 however when m_wzScriptName in the following code is set to "Python.AXScript.2" (also tried all sorts of variations Python, Python21, PythonCOM, win32com, PythonScript), it fails at the CoCreateInstance hr = CLSIDFromProgID(m_wzScriptLanguage, &clsid); if (SUCCEEDED(hr)) { hr = CoCreateInstance(clsid, NULL, CLSCTX_ALL, IID_IActiveScript, (void **)&m_pScriptEngine); anyone know what I am doing wrong here?
