[python-win32] Starting a New excel.exe Process as Opposed to Recycling an Existing Excel

[Bilokon, Paul]

Hi all,

I notice that

excel = win32com.client.Dispatch("Excel.Application")
does not necessarily create a new excel.exe process. If excel.exe is already running, then it will be recycled and a new process will not be created.

However, I would like to have some control over this and tell it to create a new process -- simply for the sake of having a cleaner environment.

Is this at all possible?

Many thanks,
Paul
