When I try to run this code as is I get this error "IDispatch = pythoncom.CoCreateInstance(IDispatch, None, clsctx, pythoncom.IID_IDispatch) pywintypes.com_error: (-2147221008, 'CoInitialize has not been called.', None, None)" , however if I run stp_tracker alone it works fine and if I run notify stp's alone it works just fine. I appreciate anyones input. Thanks
