You could try making your event a "dispinterface", or otherwise implying 
it is an IDispatch implemented event.

Also, ensure that all your objects are wrapped in a "dispatcher", so 
that you can see all exceptions generated.

The only examples I know about are in the win32com test suite. 
Specifically, there is a C++ and a VB test program that uses/is used by 
the test suite.  However, I don't think the VB test code does exactly 
what you describe.

If you like, you could modify the test code and send me patches.  Add 
everything necessary so that it should work - the event interface, and 
all Python support needed to generate the event.  I can then see why it 
does not work (and having it in the test suite means it then always will :)

You would need to modify the test VB project 
(http://www.pythonpros.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/PyWin32/com/TestSources/PyCOMVBTest/) 
and the test driver (win32com\test\testvb.py)
