Hey Tim, Wow, you are 100% correct....there was something in WingIDE that is not happy....strange.... I ran the same code in the standard interpreter and it caught the error perfectly.... BTW: What IDE's do you guys use for Python? Thanks a million, have a great day!

I can't see anything obvious (aside from the possible dangers inherent in assuming that *any* com_error means the queue doesnt' exist). I assume that the -- "Dies here... -- isn't in the original code? Does the same thing happen if you run in the standard interpreter? (Don't know if WingIDE does anything fancy to intercept exceptions). If the same does happen in the interpreter, can you use the traceback module / sys.exc_info to determine exactly what exception is raised and how it relates to pythoncom.com_error?
