Python/Excel VBComponents crash

[Mark Carter]

I use Office 2000, and I have recently upgraded to python 2.3 and
win32all-155.exe

The following code worked in python 2.2:

xlApp = Dispatch("Excel.Application")
xlApp.Visible = 1
xlApp.Workbooks.Add()
xlApp.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs(sys.path[0] + '\\temp.xls')
wb = xlApp.Workbooks("temp.xls")
wbc = wb.VBProject.VBComponents # <---- CAUSES CRASH IN 2.3
xlApp.Quit()
del xlApp

but I get a GPE in 2.3, when the code finishes execution:
EXCEL caused an invalid page fault in
module OLE32.DLL at 0167:65f18ae3.

If you comment out the line
wbc = ...
then I get no GPE.
Any ideas?

I think this is a bug in Excel,

I had raised this as issue 785258 in Sourceforge's pywin32 page. Your
response has been added to the issue, and I reclassified the issue as
Invalid (because we are saying that it was raised in error).
