Question

How to access a COM object from a python file using python 3.0.

And, yes, I know that not a lot of people are using Python 3.0. Switching back to 2.6 is a huge hassle for me, so I don’t want to unless I absolutely have to.

I appreciate your time, and any assistance!

Answer 1

Install pywin32 and then create the object using it’s progid:

import win32com.client object = win32com.client.Dispatch('Outlook.Application') 

See also the Python and COM tutorial.

EDIT: Hmm… looks like they may not have a python 3.0 version yet.
