<p>Congratulations on installing the Python ActiveX Scripting Engine</p>

<H3>Object model</H3>
|
|
<P>Except as described below, the object module exposed should be similar to that exposed
|
|
by Visual Basic, etc. Due to the nature of ActiveX Scripting, the details for each
|
|
host are different, but Python should work "correctly".
|
|
|
|
<P>The object model exposed via Python for MSIE is not as seamless as VB. The biggest limitation is
|
|
the concept of a "local" namespace. For example, in VB, you can
|
|
code <code>text="Hi there"</code>, but in Python, you must code
|
|
<code>MyForm.ThisButton.Text="Hi There"</code>. See the <A HREF="foo2.htm">foo2</A> sample
|
|
for futher details.

<LI><P>This release seems to have broken Aaron's mouse-trace sample. No idea why, and Im supposed to be looking into it.
|
|
<LI><P>Builtin objects such as MARQUEE are giving me grief. Objects accessed via forms are generally
|
|
no problem.
|
|
<LI><P>If you are trying to use Python with the Windows Scripting Host, note that
|
|
.pys files are not correct registered - you will need to explicitely
|
|
specify either cscript.exe or wscript.exe on the command line.
