Python as alternative to Visual Basic

[Aaron Ginn]

I just want to thank everyone who has responded thus far.  It seems like 
Python will do what I require in terms of its COM interoperability. 
That's very good news!  WxPython sounds like my best alternative to 
creating a cross-platform interface with what appears to be a nice 
Windows look and feel.  That's something I'll definately investigate.

Thanks,
Aaron
