ODBC links?

Lo' there. I'm a new user of Python, what I'm looking for is an easy way to
create ODBC links to Access databases (obviously, Access isn't the best
database out there I can use, but its easiest to just piece together for
this quick project). What modules would I want to be looking for to create
an ODBC link?

Hi,

maybe pyodbc is what you are looking for:

You could also try ceODBC, which was written by Anthony Tuininga (of
cx_Oracle fame):

HI, I use vb6 to access database. I can select between "local" data base and "remote" data base. Both connection calls the same Access 2000 Mdb. The Mdb contains local tables (on the hard disk) and remote links to Oracle tables via odbc link. The local connection (to the recordset) is fast, but the "remote" connection takes around 7...

I am basically wanting to make sure that the data access is displaying is the most current data on the server. Thanks.

Hello, I am in the process of 'figuring out' how to verify if I have a valid connection to an ODBC data source (SQL Server 2000).

The code works fine if the connection exists (returns...
