[python-win32] python-win32 Digest, Vol 168, Issue 3

Hi Michel,

Thanks for the response. Yes that's an option available. I've already tried
this for setting permissions on files and folders. Since each invocation
constitutes a System Call, it fills up the stack easily and the OS denies
the handle thereafter. I'm trying to achieve it in a more native and
pythonic way.

Regards,
Goku
