thanks to all of you for helping me.

do i have to implement the IPersistStream by my self?
regarding to IStorage and IStream, i can invoke StgCreateDocfile and
IStorage::CreateStream to generate corresponding objects.

i thought there must be some way to do that effectively, without
having to do all
trivial things by myself.

i went through all of the samples coming up with pywin32 before i post
this thread.
as to ./win32com/test/testStreams.py, it implements IStream and
IPersist interfaces
by itself (and the implementation is incomplete).
i don't think that's a good way to implement all of the interfaces
that i need, do you?

thanks.
