Actually, I have created some robust win32com applications (using Word 
and Excel) that work consistently on all installed machines.

Could it be an Office 2003 quirk? Did some other app of yours crash 
while using COM? Such crashes could produce unpredictable results in COM 
related code, from my experience.

So, if you think it is worth your time, you could probably investigate 
it a bit more or better contact Mark Hammond to see if he can help. I 
don't know if there is a win32com mailing list; if there is one, please 
post your question there too.

Thanks,
