Hi Roger,

Thanks for the help. So now the program looks like:

import win32com.client

class HelloWorld:

_reg_clsid_ = "{4E797C6A-5969-402F-8101-9C95453CF8F6}"

_reg_desc_ = "Python Test COM Server"

_reg_progid_ = "Python.TestServer"

_public_methods_ = ['Hello']

_public_attrs_ = ['softspace', 'noCalls']

_readonly_attrs_ = ['noCalls']

def __init__(self):

self.softspace = 1

self.noCalls = 0

def Hello(self, WL ):

# In VB this looks like Public Sub Hello(ByVal objWL As
WealthLab.IWealthLabAddOn3)

WL = win32com.client.Dispatch(WL)

self.noCalls = self.noCalls + 1

# insert "softspace" number of spaces

return "Hello" + " " * self.softspace + str(self.noCalls) +
str(WL.BarCount())


if __name__=='__main__':

import win32com.server.register

win32com.server.register.UseCommandLine(HelloWorld)

The Python Trace Collector gives me:

Object with win32trace dispatcher created (object=None)

in _GetIDsOfNames_ with '('Hello',)' and '2048'

in _Invoke_ with 1002 0 3 (<PyIDispatch at 0x3d91824 with obj at 0x32eea00>)
