Python as VBA replacement under Windows?

What I meant was that quite a lot of Windows applications (not only MS 
Office) allow to execute VBA scripts just like "macros" from within the 
application. What I want now is to write a "dummy" VBA script 
"container" that consists of/executes Python sourcecode by calling the 
Pythonwin interpreter.

Yup, from outside. What I would like to do is do it from "inside" the 
application.

Well, at least as far as there's a COM interface and for someone who 
refuses to learn VB(A) but still wants to script Windows applications.

Sincerely,
