VB frontend to Python COM backend

[nik]

I have a VB6 application that I would like to attach to a python
communications application.

I have come across several discussions on using VB with a Python COM
back-end, but no starting point. I haven't had anymore luck with
google at finding out what this method is called and where to find
more information or examples on it. I would really appreciate it if
someone could point me in the right direction for using python objects
from VB.

Thank you,
Nik
