REPOST: printing from Word using win32com

[Frederick H. Bartlett]

How do I get rid of the UnicodeError in 

    something = myWord.ActiveDocument.Paragraphs
    for item in something:
        try:
            print str(item).encode('latin-1')
        except UnicodeError:
            print "XXX There was a Unicode Error."

Thanks!
