OK - what you probably need to do is to pull the "pywintypes.dsp" MSVC 
project file from CVS using the "Python22" CVS tag.  This should force 
all win32 extensions you build to use the Python22 DLL.  Similarly, you 
do the same for win32com.dsp to build the COM extensions against Python 2.2.

But hey, if it works.... ;)
