I just recently installed ActivePython 2.4.2 build 245 on XP
sp2 and none of the programs that is use for automating COM objects seem to
work. The script is running on the local machine trying to operate local
COM objects. Sample script: import win32com.client import win32api def _BusyWait(self): win32api.Sleep(100) while
self.Busy: win32api.Sleep(100) print
'Busy:', win32api.Sleep(100) print
'\n' print
'Finished Script' path = 'http://www.foxnews.com' endline = '\r\n' shell = win32com.client.Dispatch('WScript.Shell') shell.Run('IEXPLORE') win32api.Sleep(5000) ie =
win32com.client.GetActiveObject('InternetExplorer.Application') print ie.LocationURL shell.AppActivate('ClayNet') win32api.Sleep(1000) shell.SendKeys('\t') win32api.Sleep(100) shell.SendKeys(path) win32api.Sleep(100) shell.SendKeys(endline) _BusyWait(ie) The error I get is: At the GetActiveObject line I get “Operation
Unavailable” The Shell part and the win32api sleep function seem to work
normally. I get this same behavior from the wmi interface COM objects. Question: What permissions need to be set to these
types of objects as well as Word, Outlook, Excel, Power Point etc.? Ronnie Jones |
