Thanks for the reply. I already have "Learning Python" from Mark Lutz and David Ascher, which covers 2.3 (I am in 2.4). However, it seems like heavy artillery to me. What I want is, for instance, run a VBScript to get a function output and feed it to the Python script that called it. The reason is that because I feel more comfortable with VBScript and have written a small library of useful utilities, I don't want it to become obsolete. In the mean time I did more reading and found a couple of prospective alternatives - popen and os.system(command). Still need to work out how to use them...

Subject: Re: executing VBScript from Python and vice versa
Go to the bookstore and get a copy of Python Programming on Win32 by Mark Hammond, Andy Robinson today.
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/pythonwin32/
It has everything you need.
Is there a way to make programs written in these two languages communicate
with each other? I am pretty sure that VBScript can access a Python script
because Python is COM compliant. On the other hand, Python might be able to
call a VBScript through WSH. Can somebody provide a simple example? I have
exactly 4 days of experience in Python (and fortunately, much more in VB6)
Thanks.
