Well, this is a good question, and having looked into it in more depth, I've discovered that I don't know the answer. Out-of-process servers call CoRegisterClassObject to register their classes with the COM runtime. That doesn't change the registry. I can't find a COM utility to return the process ID for a given CLSID, and without that, I don't know how you'd find the executable name. -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
