I think you need to call Activate on your OLE object. Here is some code I use to extract the text from an Excel worksheet embedded in a PowerPoint slide. Maybe you can adapt it to your purposes. def extract_excel_text( shape ): """Process embedded excel worksheet in the powerpoint slide """ format = shape.OLEFormat format.Activate() excel = format.Object sheet = excel.ActiveSheet for row in sheet.UsedRange.Value: for cell in row: if cell: yield cell for shape in sheet.Shapes: try: # We need to give a range of characters, # # but we can take advantage of the fact that texboxes # # have a maximum length of 255 characters # yield shape.TextFrame.Characters(1,255).Text except com_error, details: log_error( "Exception getting shape text", details ) Regards, Ryan -- Ryan Ginstrom -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
