I can repro the behaviour, but it seems that *any* operation on the
Find object fails - either with a ValueError similar to what you get (the
number of bytes in excess is different), with an AccessViolation, or
even with a Python fatal error.

Can you do any sucessfull operations on the Find object?

I have no idea if it worked better in the past, there is no unittest using
the Find object, and I don't use word via COM myself.

The behaviour looks like the generated code would be wrong (there was
such an issue in the past), but at first inspection I cannot find what's
wrong.

Can you try out if any older comtypes version works better?

Thanks,
Thomas
