I am trying to learn to use comtypes in order to develop a COM server for
use with MS Excel.
I have followed the example here
https://pythonhosted.org/comtypes/server.html
I am able to register the server from a CMD window with administrator
privileges.
I have checked that the server appears to be running by calling the method
from Python, as shown in the example.
>From Excel, I can see the server under Tools | References and connect to
it.
However, when I try to use the following VBA code to access it I get an
R6034 error, saying that something has made an attempt to load a runtime
library incorrectly.
Function test(a, b)
Dim x As New MyObject
ab = x.MyMethod(a, b)
Debug.Print "d" & CStr(ab)
test = ab
End Function
I have comtypes 1.1.1 and python 2.7.8 (32-bit) and I am running Office
2007 on a Win7 computer (64-bit, home edition).
Looking at these comments

the impression that it must be a problem with Excel not knowing where to
find some of the DLLs required. But I have no idea how to track this down.
