Hi Python-list - Has anyone figured this out from Rebecca:
Hi, I am having trouble with win32com for python. I get the following error when I try to issue any command after using Dispatch. >>> xl=win32com.client.Dispatch("Excel.Application") >>> xl.Visible=0 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#7>", line 1, in ? xl.Visible=0 File "D:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 504, in __setattr__ raise AttributeError, "Property '%s.%s' can not be set." % (self._username_, attr) AttributeError: Property 'Excel.Application.Visible' can not be set. >>> I have programs that I used to use all the time and they simply won't run. Is this an error with python or win32com or my setup? Thanks, -rebecca I have the same problem. Thus, myWord = Dispatch("Word.Application") myWord.Visible = 1 # or, True opens a word document but myExcel = Dispatch("Excel.Application") myExcel.Visible = 1 # or, True causes (as Rebecca notes above): AttributeError: Property 'Excel.Application.Visible' can not be set.
