Hi, Every one please accept my thanks.
I have stopped using Python IDLE. Know I am using Pythonwin IDE from Active State. They have the same core modules. But the Pywin32 extensions are a plus from Active State. The problem is that the Pywin32 Documentation is incomplete/incorrect. The modules by Mark Hammond are in .pyd and not in .py. The documentayion on Active's web site is also incorrect. Here is a code snippet from the IDE import win32service >>> ws=win32service >>> ws.CreateDesktop() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ? TypeError: CreateDesktop() takes exactly 4 arguments (0 given) >>> And here is the prototype from the documentation win32service.CreateDesktop PyHDESK = CreateDesktop() Creates a new desktop in calling process's current window station The documentation does not mention any arguments, yet there is a TypeError. The source code in C at Pywin32 extensions homepage are of not much help. So, how do i use win32 extensions? Regards -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
