[python-win32] constants problem

[kimwaic888-pythonwin32@yahoo.com]

Roger,

Thank you for the reply.  Could you please elaborate a
little further.  I don't fully understand the message.

You said:

>For the constants to be available, you'll need to run
makepy on the machines your script will run on.

I tried to run makepy.py and a menu of "types" poped
up.   What should I be doing with that?   More
importantly, I didn't have to do that on my own
machine and everything has been working fine.  Why's
that?

>win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch will create 

Is that a class method I should invoke from my code? 
Or is that something I should be doing via an import
statement?  Or what exactly is that?

Thanks again,
