If an exception happens in your event handler (before something is printed), or an exception happens calling your event handler (for example if it is called with more or less arguments than it expects), then comtypes catches the exception and logs an error via Pythons logging module. So, to see the exceptions if there are any, you must configure logging to not swallow the exceptions silently. Adding these lines at the top of your script should work, for example: import logging; logging.basicConfig(level=logging.ERROR) I have attached another script that shows this behaviour. > Looking at the _events.py code, I can't even see where the PumpEvents() > is being done in ShowEvents(), but that's another question. Some events require a message loop so that they are delivered, others not. To be sure that events are delivered, an event loop is required (in single threaded apartments at least). -- Thanks, Thomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
