<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I'm trying to use Python's win32com
interface to drive an excel spreadsheet.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I've managed to have it open the sheet,
call a VBA function with arguments, and close it down cleanly.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">However, if Excel is already running,
it closes the open instance. Which is not good.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Is there a way I can do the equivalent
of VBA's CreateObject() with win32com? I have purchased "Python Programming
on Win32", and can't find anything.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Soon I'll be reduced to running a short
Perl script to do it, where I'd have Python kick off the Perl to get the
job done, but I'd like to avoid that if possible.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks very much in advance.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Regards,<br>
Tom</font>
