Thanks very much, Tim. I feel quite sheepish but didn't consider the == operator since I'm so used to using "is" for this purpose with Python objects. Both versions that you suggested do the trick: table==same_table and table._oleobj_==same_table._oleobj_ Thanks, Dan _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
