I'm having trouble releasing a com object. In the past I've always set
the instance to None and life is good, as in the example below. I'm
currently working with an object I can't release with this method.
Anybody have a different/better way to handle this?
Thanks
Gary

You are
correct, it no longer
refers to the object. I should have added a few more details.
Windows still believes the object is in use, in this case its a
dll. Nothing else can be done with the dll until Python is completely
shut down. None of the other dll
in the past have had this problem.
Thanks

Try
del xxx
Even when you invoke whatever "stop" or "close" methods that object
offers, you sometimes still have to delete the object to make the
application shut down.

That was my original attempt. No luck with that either. This sucker has nine
lives.
Thanks for your response.
