[python-win32] Reading .py or .pyc from an excel sheet

[Mark Hammond]

I suspect it is simply because ActivePython doesn't register these objects (and my be why python isn't also working with the script host for some users).  The pywin32 distribution registers these objects automatically.

That was it.  I'm using ActivePython 32-bit, but I just remembered that this is a 64-bit machine, so maybe that's why it wasn't set up, or is that something you usually have to do manually?

It might be necessary to execute win32com\servers\interp.py to register the object (which inturn might not work if you installed Python without admin privs or selected "just for me")

My machine doesn't seem to recognize Python.Interpreter.  Is there some prerequisite that I could be missing?

Well as far as I can see, there's nothing to stop you instantiating
a Python interpreter via COM from Excel (class name is
"Python.Interpreter") and then use .Eval or .Exec to do things.
I'm not sure just how much this will buy you, but it should at
least be possible.
