Python COM and Threads

[Olaf Meding]

Looks like Python can not make COM calls from a thread? Here is the
error message I get: 'CoInitialize has not been called.'

Here is the code:

import threading
import win32com.client

class Thread1(threading.Thread):
def run(self):
print 'thread 1'
userInterface = win32com.client.Dispatch('Excel.Application')

def main():
t1 = Thread1()
t1.start()

if __name__ == '__main__':
main()


Thanks much for your help on this.

So.. call CoInitialize !?

(and CoUninitialize)
