[python-win32] OLE Server Busy dialog box

[Diogo]

Hi!

Some more details about the server busy dialog box.

This program, that I'm working with, calls MakeActiveXClass(wxPython),
which calls pywin.mfc.CreateControl, which calls
win32ui.CreateControl. If I connect to a slow COM server just _before_
the call to win32ui.CreateControl, then everything is fine, no busy
message. But after the Control is created, it seems that the program
gets in an "incorrect" state, i.e, whenever I call a slow COM server,
_after_ CreateControl has been called, the busy message box will
appears.

is there perhaps any initialization that I may have forgotten, or any
other ideas?

Thanks a lot,
Diogo

I was wrong at this point. The program is using win32ui.
