Summary: Error calling win32gui.GetActiveWindow()

Initial Comment:
When i call win32gui.GetActiveWindow() from the
PythonWin IDE, the call succeeds. 
But if i call win32gui.GetActiveWindow() from anywhere
else (PyDev within Eclipse, VisualPython, Python in
CommandShell), the call fails with following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
pywintypes.error: (0, 'GetActiveWindow', 'No error
message is available')

I'm using win32all build 163
WinXP
