Python: win32com.client import problem

threaderslash · 10-14-2009, 03:49 AM

Hi Everybody

I have 2 imports:

Code:

import pythoncom
from win32com.client import Dispatch

if I run it on my Python 2.6 Console, it works nicely. However, when I go to Eclipse IDE, open a project, open a main.py file, and try run, it gives the error:

Code:

import pythoncom
ImportError: No module named pythoncom

All other imports are working ok on Eclipse IDE -- e.g. import MySQLdb.

Any suggestion about what is missing?

All comments and suggestions are welcome.

-- hope it can help and save time for others too

Here is what did and works:
* copy the file mfc71.dll on windows\system32
* copy the same to your directories Python26\DLLs and Python26\lib\site-packages\win32
* go to preferences : pydev : interpreter python : remove all the interpreter you have there. apply, ok.
then add python 2.6 again, apply, ok.

this will do the trick....
