It would be relatively easy to wrap up any of the SAX-compliant parsers
written in and for Python in a COM object. Turning a Python object into a
COM object seems to be about 15 minutes work. I admit that I haven't done
it myself yet because the only project I would have done it for is
switching from VB to Python.

But I did do the research a few weeks ago and it looked easy, if you are
familiar with COM. And of course, you could also make a COM wrapper for a
C++ parser in C++.
