Thank you Tim. Your advise is been of great help. I just purchased M. Hammond's "Python Programming on Win32" book. Though a bit old the (1999) still is of great help. I have been able to make simple COM servers so far. However, I have a question regarding the code examples found in his http://starship.python.net/ web site. Are they written in Python 1.x... or Python 2.x? I wonder if there are code examples written for Python 3.x?
