Hi Steve,
It is working now,
I decided to look in the Python Libs folder inside the SitePackages
folder and noticed several folders, one for client and one for gen.
Sure enough inside the gen folder was the generated WindowEyes.py file,
so I imported it.
from comtypes.client import CreateObject
from comtypes.gen import WindowEyes
WeTts = CreateObject( "WindowEyes.Application")
It runs without the .gen as long as it is a .py program, but when
compiled it did not find the WindowEyes Application so,
Adding the importing the .gen folder WindowEyes.py it now works both as a
.py program and a compiled under Pyinstaller .exe program. Able to now find
WindowEyes using the generated or WindowEyes.py generator file...

Hi Steve,
I was busy with someone and did not get back timely.
The original create was the .client create object in comtypes. The error
only shows up after a compiling of it.
Now, I am using pyinstaller as my compiler and using the -F command to
make an executable.
Once compiled and running it says it can not creat the object.
Originally an error of no client.create came up.
I am using Python2.7 and I am wondering if the version of Python is at
fault?
I know you have made Python programs and used Python2.7, so what version
of PyInstaller was used? Or did you use another compiler?
I guess there may be an issue of manifest, but never used one when
making an executable. It does allow the creation of the SAPI create and SAPI
works, but not Windoweyes...

Bruce,
As per my previous message, what do you get for the application's
output? Also, if you're assembling an executable that requires a
distutils-style setup.py script, you will likely need to add references
to the packages you're using.
