Canceling COM Events

I posted this on comp.lang.python and was advised to try here (no suggestions over there worked):

I have MapPoint working in Python, and I'm trying to cancel events on the map, but I can't seem to make that happen. I'm responding to the events successfully in my panel object. My code is like this:

global MapPointMod
MapPointMod = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureModule("{51C0A9CA-F7B7-4F5A-96F4-43927C6FA50F}", 0, 1, 0)

class MyPanel(wx.Panel):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwds):
        # begin wxGlade: MyPanel.__init__
        kwds["style"] = wx.TAB_TRAVERSAL
        wx.Panel.__init__(self, *args, **kwds)
        self.frame = args[0]
               MyMap = MakeActiveXClass(MapPointMod.MappointControl, eventObj=self)
        self.window_1 = MyMap(self, -1)
        self.window_1.OpenMap("C:\\TEMP\\GPS_ON.ptt")
...
    def OnBeforeClick(self, Button, Shift, X, Y, Cancel):
        print "tada"

My event fires just fine, but I can't seem to figure out how to cancel the event so that mappoint doesn't do its stuff with it...I've tried setting Cancel based on the mappoint specs, but it doesn't seem to get sent back anywhere...

I've tried returning Cancel (after having set it to true) from the function, but that doesn't seem to do anything either.

Any ideas please?

Thanx,

OLIVER

I've also tried many derivations of:

return (0, True)
return True
return (1==1)
etc...
