Hi! I am thinking about fiddling with the Research Task Pane in Microsoft Office using Python. The goal is to create a simple, generic module that can be used for building various web services (in Python) for the Research Task Pane. Basically the module should implement the Registration and Query functions required by Office and handle the SOAP traffic to and from the client (which is the Research Task Pane). Does anyone on the list have good pointers or Python code snippets/modules for doing this? I have found a lot of hello world examples in VB and C# on the web, but nothing for Python. (Sorry for cross-posting; I posted a similar question to the regular python-list a few weeks ago.)

I have never used the Research Task Pane or access it via any programming or scripting language, so I have no idea if this would work, but I would assume that it would be like accessing any other object and attribute using win32com. (That is if it is wrapped in win32com package) IE: import win32com.client word = win32com.client.Dispatch("Word.Application") Then access the relevant calls you need from word if you look here - http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dno2k3ta/html/odc_customizingtheresearchpane.asp you can see some example in VB, which will give you the hints as to the names of methods and attribute. Hope this helps some. Graeme
