Hello,
I am new to the list, and relatively new to Python development in general. That said, I need to be able to use the win32com module and I am encountering issues installing it and using it. I have installed the 32-bit version of Python 3.6, which I verified at the Python cli. When I try to install the 32-bit version of pywin (build 220, pywin32-220.win32-py3.6.exe) the installer yells at me saying it can't find a compatible version of Python. If, however, I try to install the 64-bit version of build 220 (pywin32-220.win-amd64-py3.6.exe) the install succeeds fine. But, when I try to import win32com I get the standard error trying to load a DLL, which indicates it is trying to load the wrong version of the DLL, where I have 32-bit Python 3.6 but am trying to load the 64-bit DLL. I must be doing something wrong here, but I can't see what it is. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
