Could anybody tell me the difference between Dispatch and DispatchEx.
I am new to python and extremely confused about the usage of the two methods.

I could find DispatchEx neither in the python documentation nor in the docs to PythonWin. Must be from some other module You are using.

I am using the win32com.client.Dispatch and the win32com.client.DispatchEx.These are methods found in the win32 extension of python.

  1. >>> Dispatch.__doc__
  2. 'Creates a Dispatch based COM object.\n '
  3. >>> DispatchEx.__doc__
  4. 'Creates a Dispatch based COM object on a specific machine.\n '

Looks like the latter is for remote objects. Still could not find any other documentation...

HTH
