Hmm, I have a somewhat similar situation... I have databases in Access.
Currently, they are converted to cvs and read into mysql, which then serves
them to python via iODBC + mxODBC.  Of course, I would much rather have Access
talk to mysql directly and be just a front-end for mysql, and the iODBC stuff
seems to imply this can be done...  But I still can't figure out how to get
Access to do this...  Anyone have a similar setup?

thanks!
