Almost totally same usage as pyodbc ( can be seen as a re-implementation of pyodbc in pure Python ). Simple - the whole module is implemented in a single python script with less than 3000 lines. Built-in Access MDB file creation and compression functions on Windows. |
On Unix platforms, you can use one of the ODBC drivers available from commercial ODBC vendors. If you only need to query data from MS Access files, you can also have a look at the very limited ODBC driver that comes with the [[http://mdbtools.sourceforge.net/|MDBTools]]. This works reasonably well to extract data from the MS Access files. |

On Windows, you can use mxODBC with the ODBC driver that comes with MS Access, or use the ODBC driver that comes with the MDAC 2.8 SP1 database access package, if you don't have MS Access installed on the machine.
On Unix platforms, you can use one of the ODBC drivers available from commercial ODBC vendors. If you only need to query data from MS Access files, you can also have a look at the very limited ODBC driver that comes with the MDBTools. This works reasonably well to extract data from the MS Access files.
