Grant, that is possible. Just read the makepy.py script within win32com.client, and you will find that someway down main() there is
--------- GenerateFromTypeLibSpec(arg, f, verboseLevel = verboseLevel, bForDemand = bForDemand, bBuildHidden = hiddenSpec) --------- which does this. BUT, for "static" usage of makepy-COM-Mappings I suggest to make makepy output it's results in a named file makepy -o ADO28.py and furtheron import that ADO28 file to access the variables. That does also work with Excel and Word, and I am used to import ExcelXX as Excel ec=Excel.constants and further on us ec.* for excel constants.
