This is the form you should use, but the method name you are trying to

Ah, yes. Good catch! Unfortunately, correcting that typo didn't seem
to fix it. Here's what I get, when using the correct method name this
time.

>>> x.SetSettingValue("testName","testValue")
>>> testValue = x.GetSettingValue("testName")

It appears it does want that second parameter, but passing in a variable
doesn't seem to work.
That's very strange. pywin32 *will* be passing a second param - a byref
bstr. byref params do work in general, so you might need to contact the
vendor of the object for help.
Cheers,
Mark
