We have decided to oset the default printer in a macro which we must run on the excel report and hope that all will work on Monday when in production.
I would like to find a python solution which I could refactor into the correct place. Again, my wits with Python still have not formed. Also... I am unable to dedicate to much time to this task for the time being. Thanks for the suggestions. I will try and think outside the box using them as guidance.

The services load C++ DLLs, for example snap.pyd, to do some of the work. All working fine until a customer installed pywin32 build 214 then some of the services don't load, because some of the DLLs load others do not :( The error I get in the Windows Event Viewer looks like this Python could not import the service's module Traceback (most recent call last): ... import snap ImportError: DLL load failed: Invalid access to memory location. %2: %3 The DLLs load fine in PythonWin and if the .py file which includes the import is run from the command line. The .py file only fails if run by PythonService.exe. If there is someone out there who can say "yes that's because you have not done .... " that would be wonderful. Otherwise is there a list of the changes from build 212 which could break existing applications so that I can work out what I've got to change ? I hope this has all made some sense Thanks Tim. ------------------------------ Python Automation Question DISCLAIMER: This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.

(Sorry; how would you prefer to be addressed?) What would be really useful is one or two paragraphs outlining the problem you're solving with this solution :) I've more-or-less followed your posts here over the past year, and your code's quite readable so I can get an idea, but perhaps something along the lines of: The requirement: xxxx The problems: xxx The solution: xxx would be helpful. No need for too much text; just an outline on which to hang your different pieces of code.

The number of items is limited only by available memory. I know of apps that have used more than 100,000 items. Why do you believe there is a 9,999 line limit? > - I did not found how define alignment for columns (Left, Right, > Center) ; have you a sample? You can do it when you add the column using LVM_INSERTCOLUMN, or you can do it afterwards by sending LVM_SETCOLUMN. You set the "fmt" member of the LVCOLUMN structure to LVCFMT_RIGHT or LVCFMT_CENTER. Be sure to set LVC_FMT in the "mask" member to indicate that you're changing the format. If you use LVM_SETCOLUMN, you should probably do an LVM_GETCOLUMN first, then modify the current settings. The leftmost column is ALWAYS left-justified. This cannot be changed. This seems like the hard way to write an application. Have you considered using a GUI framework like Tkinter or Qt or (my favorite) wxPython? -- Tim Roberts, [email protected] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. ------------------------------ Message: 5 Date: Fri, 19 Feb 2010 08:12:43 +0100 From: "Michel Claveau" <[email protected]> To: "Python-Win32 List" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [python-win32] win32gui and SysListView32 Message-ID: <1104ce55fbf149e69f26064c55346...@mci1330> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; reply-type=original Hi, Tim! Thanks for your answer. >> - The size is limited to 9999 lines ; how define more? > The number of items is limited only by available memory You are right. I tried with 300 000 lines, without problem. I do not know I had a 9999 limit on my first tests... Sorry for trouble. Little info (for other readers): This code give more speed: win32gui.PostMessage(self.hwnd, win32con.WM_SETREDRAW,0,0) ...(preparation of data in show)... win32gui.PostMessage(self.hwnd, win32con.WM_SETREDRAW,1,0) win32gui.UpdateWindow(self.hwnd) >> - I did not found how define alignment for columns (Left, Right, Center) > "fmt" member of the LVCOLUMN ... If you use LVM_SETCOLUMN, you > should probably do an LVM_GETCOLUMN first. OK, it's run. Without LVM_GETCOLUMN first. But with win32gui.UpdateWindow after. Thank you very well & again :))) > The leftmost column is ALWAYS left-justified. This cannot be changed. In my W7, I can align the column 0 (leftmost) without problem. Perhaps because I insert it in last operation? > This seems like the hard way to write an application. Have you > considered using a GUI framework like Tkinter or Qt or (my favorite) > wxPython? I tried TK: limited. I tried wx: I let down, because several conflict's versions, and it is very complicated. Actually, I use Autoit like GUI, and Python's functions linked to UIobject and events (via COM) ; run OK, but not pythonic. Also I use IE like GUI, with PLUIE (http://ponx.org/ponx/guiescreens.htm) ; but it is not very fast. I think than a pure pywin32 is a good way to explore. Have a nice day.
