The obvious question is, do you have Excel installed? That error (80080005) means that the COM server app (Excel, in this case) did not start up and register itself within the timeout period, which is usually a very long time -- 2 minutes. If you start Excel by hand, does it start right up? Is it possible you ran this on a machine that had a trial version, and the trial period had expired, or the app had never been run and its trying to install itself? -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
