Look for "record" in the win32com\test directory.  There are some 
examples.  However, it will depend on the type library if it works - the 
record must have a GUID.

If the makepy generated file has no reference to any "record"s, then I'm 
afraid you can't use these particular ones.  If "fixing" the TLB an option?
