[K_Sathish_Kumar]

Hi Team,

i am using Python as Project script a Language, and i am trying to use Runner.CallMethod to execute a definition which is in a different routine, but i am getting error as "Python runtime error.Could not convert variant of type (Dispatch) into type (OleStr)"

i have used the import statements as well,

Please find the my below snippet and request you to please help me to resolve it

#Unit1
def testSample():
  Log.Message("Automation")

import Unit1
def Executor():
  strUnitName = "Unit1"
  Runner.CallMethod(eval(str(strUnitName)+".testSample"))

request you to please help me to resolve this Problem.

Thanks and Regards,

Why do you need Runner.CallMethod?

Try this :

Spoiler

eval("Unit1.testSample()");

@A_Roskoshnyi ,

Thanks for your reply

And the below solutions resolved my problem:

exec("Unit1.testSample()") and eval("Unit1.testSample()")

Hi,

I believe that

Runner.CallMethod(str(strUnitName)+".testSample")

should work as well.
