With caveats, that is generally not possible. The Python implementation you're used is interpreted. To run Python code, you have to run an interpreter. It is possible for a program to create an instance of the interpreter and pass that instance some code, but there's no way to package that up so the caller doesn't know it's Python. Now, you can certainly create COM servers in Python that can be invoked from other non-Python programs. There are many, many examples of that. Also, I believe IronPython will let you do this. That's the .NET implementation of Python. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
