Thanks for the info.

To call a dll function, it needs a C style IDispatch*. PyIDispatch is
a python wrapped one. I found a reference from:

http://svn.python.org/projects/ctypes/trunk/comtypes/comtypes/test/test_win32com_interop.py

which shows how to convert C style to python style. Unfortunately i
need the reversed version.

I will post the question to python-win32.
