I'm having the same problem, and I haven't been able to find an answer either. The following code demonstrates the problem without using PAMIE:
from win32com.client import DispatchEx import time
ie = DispatchEx("InternetExplorer.Application") ie.Visible = 1 ie.Navigate("http://google.com";) # wait for page to finish loading while ie.Busy: time.sleep(0.1) while ie.Document.ReadyState != 'complete': time.sleep(0.1) ie.Document.forms['f'].elements.all['q'].value = "win32all" # the following line throws an exception on XP SP2: ie.Document.forms['f'].elements.all['q'].fireEvent('onchange') ie.Quit()
The full error produced is:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\framework\scriptutils.py" , line 310, in RunScript exec codeObject in __main__.__dict__ File "C:\Documents and Settings\smcdonald\Desktop\xpsp2test.py", line 14, in ? ie.Document.forms['f'].elements.all['q'].fireEvent('onchange') File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 165, in __call__ return self._get_good_object_(self._oleobj_.Invoke(*allArgs),self._olerepr_.def aultDispatchName,None) com_error: (-2147024891, 'Access is denied.', None, None)
If anyone has any solutions or suggestions, I'd love to hear them.

I just ran into the exact same roadblock. I don't have a solution, but I did get to test the same program on XP and 2000, and it produced the same error with both OS's. Both boxes are running the latest update of IE6, so maybe it's an IE security thing we're getting snagged on.
I too would *really* appreciate a solution or even a hint.
