[python-win32] Outlook Add-In Demo Question ... A runtime error occurred during the loading of the com add-in

[Dan Moisan]

I apologize in advance for the basic question, but I have spent about 40
hours researching how to make the demo "outlookAddin.py" load on my Outlook
2016 32 bit application. I am running Python version 3.7 and I can
successfully run the outlookAddin.py script from PyCharm. But then when I
open outlook, I always receive the message "... not loaded. a runtime error
occurred during the loading of the com add-in".

I am sure that I missing a very basic step to make this run, but I can't
seem to find anything online. Do I need to do something to compile the
outlookAddin.py script before or after I run it? Or should the add-in load
after it is registered? I'm so sorry for such a basic question.

Thank you!

Dan
