Hi,

I'm trying to run comtypes under Windows 7 64bit.  When using comtypes with 
python 64bit then the script fails with:

# python excelmoniter.py
Activating excel link...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "excelmoniter.py", line 80, in <module>
    main()
  File "excelmoniter.py", line 68, in main
    xl = get_excel()
  File "excelmoniter.py", line 35, in get_excel
    return GetActiveObject("Excel.Application")
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\comtypes\client\__init__.py", line 180, 
in
 GetActiveObject
    obj = comtypes.GetActiveObject(clsid, interface=interface)
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\comtypes\__init__.py", line 1165, in 
GetAc
tiveObject
    oledll.oleaut32.GetActiveObject(byref(clsid), None, byref(p))
  File "_ctypes/callproc.c", line 925, in GetResult
WindowsError: [Error -2147221021] Operation unavailable

This works when using python 32bit.  

See attached for the script.  

Regards,

David
