Hi Tim and all, Thanks for your reply... I thought would be helpful looking at the error code from win32, I got. Basically, I'm getting error in the _init_.py line 85, 95, 108 and 245. See below. I got this error in all programs I try to implement win32com.client module. I'm quite new Python user and I will appreciate your kind further help.

Are you entirely sure that the Bloomberg Desktop API v3 a 32-bit service? Remember that you can ONLY call a 32-bit in-process server from a 32-bit application, and a 64-bit server from a 64-bit application. You could check in the registry. If you find an entry under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\blpcomapi.Session.1 then you have a 64-bit version. If you find an entry under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Wow6432Node\blpcomapi.Session.1 then you have a 32-bit version. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32 _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
