Solved !!!

Apparently a week ago when I read the doc string in the file
activexwrapper.py i was not paying enough attention. Another trip to this
file solved the problem.

GanttClass = MakeActiveXClass(gchart.VcGantt, eventObj=MyEvents)
                                              ^^^^^^^^
should be:

GanttClass = MakeActiveXClass(gchart.VcGantt, eventClass=MyEvents)


Now everything is working fine. :-)
