Hello Group, I am struggling very hard with using the win32com.client to use Dispatch. I've been looking around quite a lot, but couldn't find any help that solved my problem. I only started working with python 2 months ago, so I am still quite the newbie.
I'm working on a python script that is supposed to read a database into a list. It then should take certain information from each data entry, plug them into an excel file, let excel do a rather complex calculation using macros, and append the results from certain cells back to the list. I am working on Windows using the python IDLE shell and also tried it in gedit running the file on the cmd line. I downloaded the pywin32 extension from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/ and ran the setup.py file. The program starts with: *from win32com.client import Dispatch * For which I receive the following Error message: *Traceback (most recent call last): File "Z:\testpython\dbf_converter\testing.py", line 3, in <module> from win32com.client import Dispatch ImportError: No module named win32com.client* - I read through the Installation Problems on http://starship.python.net/~skippy/win32/InstallationProblems.html. I found that I do have two versions of the python27.dll file, and deleted the one in the C:\Python27 directory, but everytime I start IDLE it re-creates that file. - I also tried setting the path using (separately) ...but no difference. - *sys.path.append('C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\')* - *sys.path.append('C:\\Python27\\pywin32-214\\pywin32-214\\com')* - I tried deleting and reinstalling the extension I am completely lost and would really appreciate any help. Amelie
