I can't see docs for that property, but if it takes optional params, it might have been transformed to a SetRuleName() method. You could try adding:
rule_obj. _print_details_() and see what is dumped. Finally, if you can use makepy, the generated file should make it clearer to see what is going on. Cheers, Mark From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tim Johnson Sent: Wednesday, 30 January 2008 11:18 AM To: python-win32@python.org Subject: [python-win32] "Property '%s.%s' can not be set" on read/write attribute So I'm trying to automate some tasks with SMS, and I've run into a roadblock when creating new collection membership rules. The code below is a method of a Collection object. It's a rough draft, so don't worry too much about the top half unless you think it might be screwing something up. My problem is that I go to create a new SMS_CollectionRuleDirect object (at the bottom of the code provided) and I get the following error: >>> coll.AddMembershipRule(rule) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "H:\p4rootw\lib\ops\sms.py", line 495, in AddMembershipRule rule_obj.RuleName = name File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 550, in __setattr__ raise AttributeError, "Property '%s.%s' can not be set." % (self._username_, attr) If you look in the SMS 2003 SDK v3.1 or here (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sms/sms2003/opsguide/ops_854m.mspx?mfr=true) you can see that the property is indeed Read/Write. Is there any way to override this or some workaround that I can use to fix this? I'm about ready to start hopping up and down in my office chair like an angry chimpanzee. # This is a method of an sms.Collection object. # # self.parent.wmi_connection is an object created via wmi.WMI() with the # namespace set to <file:///\\server\root\sms\site_S01> \\server\root\sms\site_S01, # and I can retrieve information fine, as well as add/edit Collection, # advertisement, and other objects just fine. # # self.parent.db_connection is an object created via odbc.odbc(), connected to the SMS database def AddMembershipRule(self, rule): """Adds a membership rule using an sms.MemberShipRule object.
