When building your “AutoCad.Application” object, it looks like 2007 is the
default object…
In your computer’s registry directly under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT you should be able
to find a Key (FOLDER icon) that matches that name… as well, IF AutoCAD has
different versions installed , you should be able to see
“AutoCad.Application.#######” as well, which should be the COM Object name for
the specific version you are looking for.
While I don’t have AutoCad installed, Microsoft Excel is an application that
goes about this the same way…
If I had 2+ versions of Excel installed, I would send “Excel.Application.16” to
work with for my currently installed version of Office 2019.
I hope this helps.

Subject: [python-win32] Question win32com.client.Dispatch
Hello,
I'm trying to use the command of
win32com.client.Dispatch("AutoCAD.Application") and on the computer that I'm
working with there are two versions of AutoCAD one from 2007 and another from
2021. I want to use a program that I created with the most recent version but
when I run my code it automatically opens up AutoCAD2007. How can I create a
dispatch that will run the most recent version of AutoCAD no matter the
computer?
P.S I don't want to uninstall the 2007 version since it runs some of my older
programs.
Thank you
