I'm curious to know what you've tried. The fact that you posted to the [python-win32] list suggests that you already know about the PyWin32 package, which adds virtually complete access to the Win32 API. Are there APIs you need that weren't present? -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
