[python-win32] Possible bug: what information to provide

Can you provide a short example that also includes how the object is
created?

The code above is not using makepy, even though it may have been run.  You
could try creating the object using win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch
instead of plain Dispatch, but you may still strike the same error.  If you
do, it generally means the object is not telling us what type it is, so we
can't associate it with a makepy interface.  We can work around this though.

I'm not sure what you mean here.  Please post a complete code sample,
including all output that confuses you or you believe to be wrong.

Cheers,
