Outlook-Python Issue

[Vijay Chandra Sekhar Parepalli]

Hi there,

           Can any one please help in getting me Python-Outlook programming issueclarified.

 

I just wanted to do the following using Python:

1)Open a New Oulook Mail Window

2) Fill the field: to-email address and Write somebody to it.(I DON#8217;t want to send it automatically)

 

That#8217;s all. But, I am getting an error when I try toinitiate the MAPI-Session using 

    object = win32com.client.Dispatch("Outlook.Application")

    ns =object.GetNamespace("MAPI")

    mapi =win32com.client.dynamic.Dispatch("MAPI.session")

 

Error I see is :

  File "C:\Program Files\GNU\WinCvs2.0\Macros\TemplateCvsMacro.py", line 140, in SendMAPIMail

   mapi = win32com.client.Dispatch("MAPI.session")

  File"C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\__init__.py", line 95,in Dispatch

   dispatch, userName = dynamic._GetGoodDispatchAndUserName(dispatch,userName,clsctx)

  File"C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 91,in _GetGoodDispatchAndUserName

   return (_GetGoodDispatch(IDispatch, clsctx), userName)

  File"C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 79,in _GetGoodDispatch

   IDispatch = pythoncom.CoCreateInstance(IDispatch, None, clsctx,pythoncom.IID_IDispatch)

pywintypes.com_error:(-2147221005, 'Invalid class string', None, None)

 

Can any one please help me in this regard.
