In order to save me time in the future trying to figure out how to install ActiveX Scripting Support in ActiveState Python, here's a little reminder.
- Download Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5582.
- Download ActiveState Python http://www.activestate.com/activepython.
- Download Python for Windows Extensions http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20218/.
- Install everything in the same order.
- Execute
C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\win32comext\axscript\client\pyscript.py
That's it! Enjoy!
