I am automating the creation of a new product with a Python script and have run into a problem with the interactive events getting stuck at the "Part Number" dialog. This does not occur when creating a new part, just a new product.

I am writing a Windows Form application in .Net to list all running instances of a third-party CAD/CAM software (in this case CATIA) and let user to choose one of them to perform couple of automated tasks. For performing automated tasks, I need to get the specific instance of COM objects - compared to Getobject() which gives me a non-specific COM instance. Is there a way to get a specific COM instance using window handle or any other methods? UPDATE: As Raymond said there is no single solution for all COM objects; however I managed to get CATIA COM objects using following code (Which uses ROT
