The best reference, I'm afraid, is the .chm file which comes with the pywin32 extensions. That and a lot of experience. We're trying to put together some sort of Wiki (only very recently begun) where this kind of information could be dumped, but often searching the archives of the mailing lists is the best starting point: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=site%3Amail.python.org I do have a small series of pages: http://timgolden.me.uk/python/win32_how_do_i.html which tries to address some common problems, but they are pitifully few compared to the questions which get asked. I'll try to add your question on so at least that one's covered. The book written several years ago by Mark Hammond and Andy Robinson called (something like) Python for Win32 is still published by O'Reilly I think and is still recommended: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/pythonwin32/ Also, bear in mind that many "How do I..." questions for Python on Windows are near enough identical to "How do I..." questions for any language on Windows. So if you can find a VB or Delphi or a C# solution, the chances are it can be fairly easily translated into Python. That's all I did to give you your answer: I looked around the net a bit and then back-fitted the answer into Python. (Of course I may have the advantage of know the kind of search terms which would bite and remembering one or two API calls which were not right but which came close!)
