__getattr__ and extend COM object

[tiddlerdeja at my-deja.com]

Thanks for that, but I still have some questions.

I makepy.py -i and select "OSAComClient 1.0 Type Library (1.0)"
Which generates:
bash-2.02$ python makepy.py  -i
OSAuctionCOMClient 1.0 Type Library
 {C51A6141-884F-11D2-92D2-0010A4F29F27}, lcid=0, major=1, minor=0
 >>> # Use these commands in Python code to auto generate .py support
 >>> from win32com.client import gencache
 >>> gencache.EnsureModule('{C51A6141-884F-11D2-92D2-0010A4F29F27}', 0,
1, 0)

So, should I be doing:
mod = gencache.EnsureModule('{C51A6141-884F-11D2-92D2-0010A4F29F27}',
0, 1, 0)

??

If my GUID for my COM object changes, I need to change my python script?
Can I not just use some string to represent my COM object? So that if
my GUID changes I don't have to change my python script?

Also, what would:
mod._WhateverMakePySaysItIs

by in this example?

Sorry if I'm being lame here.
