Thanks for your tips, Mark! By looking at what win32com.client.dynamic._getitem_() does, and handling a call in my invoke_item method, I was able to get the values of the cookie. I haven’t ventured into _setitem_() yet, but at least this is a break-through and hope this helps someone else on a similar path.

I know the link is SUPER OLD but it’s the best docs I have been able to find on the subject. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/iis/6.0-sdk/ms524757(v=vs.90) I am trying to create cookies similar to how the Microsoft Certificate Authority Website on Windows Server 2016/2019/2022 does. Here’s my Python ASP code <% @Language="Python"%> <% Response.Write("Here<BR>") for cookie in Response.Cookies: Response.Write(Response.Cookies(cookie)["expires"]) Response.Write(f"dir = {Response.Cookies.__dir__()}") if not "Type" in Response.Cookies: cookie = Response.Cookies["type"] = "peanut-butter" # simplistic example of trying to create one Response.Write("Past Cookie Creation code<BR>") %> Here’s my error: Python ActiveX Scripting Engine error '80020009' Traceback (most recent call last): File "<Script Block >", line 3, in <module> cookie = Response.Cookies["type"] = "peanut-butter" File "C:\Python310\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 348, in __setitem__ self._oleobj_.Invoke(*allArgs), self._olerepr_.defaultDispatchName, None COM Error: OLE error 0x80020101 /testcookies.asp, line 5 cookie = Response.Cookies["type"] = "peanut-butter" Any guidance would be appreciated as I’ve scoured google for all it was worth. Response.Cookies is "just" a dynamic COM object/collection and pywin32 has never been great with them and "magic" things like properties etc due to various semantic mismatches. If you are lucky, there might be a method on the object taking 2 params? I'm guessing `__dir__` didn't help? Regardless, a last resort would be to unwrap that __setitem__ call and experiment with the correct "DISPATCH_*" flags (and in particular, trying "DISPATCH_METHOD", because the examples are all showing function calls to "set" a value, which python has no concept of!) - the other values are probably correct. HTH, Mark
