Hi, I am having problems using win32com.client with the HP QTP COM libraries. QTP is just another windows based application like Excel that exposes a COM type library for automation.
In vbscript the COM library works fine as follows: Set qtp = CreateObject("QuickTest.Application") qtp.Launch MsgBox qtp.Launched ' Prints True Using python: >>> import win32com.client >>> o = win32com.client.Dispatch("QuickTest.Application") >>> o.Launch <bound method CDispatch.Launch of <COMObject b'QuickTest.Application'>> >>> o.Launched False >>> Any idea as to why the application fails to launch when invoked with the python com libraries? In both instances I have ensured the application was closed and no processes remained in task manager. This does not appear to be a QTP issue since the COM libraries are fine when invoked via vbscript. I have installed Python 3.1.1 on win32 along with pywin32-214. I am using QTP 9.5. Any help is greatly appreciated. Best Regards, Dennis
