Hi
People,
I am new to Python, just
installed the ActivePython 2.4.1 and downloaded
pywin32-205.win32-py2.4.exe.
I executed the provided
demo application outlookAddin.py and got the following error message:
C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\demos>outlookAddin
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\demos\outlookAddin.py", line 38,in ?

I edited the "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\win32com\gen_py\2DF8D04C-5BFA-101B-BDE5-00AA0044DE52x0x2x2\__init__.py"
file to remove a few comment lines and re-executed with
the following results:
C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\demos>outlookAddin
Registered: Python.Test.OutlookAddin
So I followed the instructions in
the module:
# To debug, execute:
# outlookAddin.py --debug
#
# Then open Pythonwin, and select "Tools->Trace Collector Debugging Tool"
# Restart Outlook, and you should see some output generated.
With these results:
C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\demos>outlookAddin --debug
Registered: Python.Test.OutlookAddin (for debugging)
When I opened Pythonwin, and
selected the Trace collector Debugging Tool and restarted Outlook I got
this in the Python Trace Collector Window:
# This window will display output from any programs that import win32traceutil
# win32com servers registered with '--debug' are in this category.

Can anyone shed any light on what is
going on?
Thanks
