Which version of pywin32 works with Ecco DDE?   Message List  
Reply Message #4867 of 11788 |
When I ran into problems accessing the Ecco Pro DDE interface from
Python, I found a dependency on pywin32
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/).

Details of my analysis are on my blog:

http://blog.dataunbound.com/2008/12/31/which-version-of-pywin32-works-with-ecco-\
pro-dde/


or

The upshot is that I found that older versions of pywin32 work
(version 207 and earlier) but that the latest versions don't (version
208 to the current 212).

Have others found the same problem? Is there a workaround that would
allow one to use the later versions of pywin32?

Thanks,
-Raymond

@Raymond, You're aware that you can now run Python from WITHIN ecco. (not all dde's but many functions direct dde bypassed) ? (if helpful)....

By all means add those scripts to the library I stopped using it for two reasons: I had a couple of crashes, and realised that I did not dare entrust...
