I've just added a PR which fixes the BSTR issue for me, basically by adding an explicit check for BSTR as a primitive type (like VARIANT). It works for me, although it's a long time since I understood COM refcounting semantics, so I may not have got the memory management right. Also, it does nothing for the "numpy should be optional" question, it just avoids hitting it in this specific case. Paul PS The tests for safearray may need looking at as well - there's a BSTR test that seems to rely on the current behaviour of using numpy, if I'm reading it right - although I'm not clear why that would be seen as correct behaviour. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
