Thanks Mark! I followed your suggestion. My limited tests show using VBA in Word to automate AutoCAD is about 1.6 times faster than using Python. But still much slower than using lisp. So it is probably as you said due to the out-of- process nature. Btw, AutoCAD comes with VBA as well. So if I modify the VBA code from Word a little and run it in AutoCAD, the speed is about the same as lisp. > I have no idea why these take longer. If you change the order of the 3 tests - is it still the xrange that is fastest? Yes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ comtypes-users mailing list comtypes-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/comtypes-users
