I also tried checking Py_IsInitialized first, but it does not make a
difference.

I really care, but I don't think that I'm able to write a COM objekt in pure
C.

I would like to try that, but I have some problems: I only have VC7 so it
seems that I have to use Python 2.3, but this is no problem. I got the
current version from CVS an compiled it. But I think I will also have to
compile your win32 tools from scratch. And how do I set up a valid
installation from the stuff I compiled from CVS?
