I have the same problem.  Below is my output.  I will first use the odbc
that comes included with ActivePython, then the mxODBC module  (by the way,
I've tried to rename the odbc.pyc file, that did not help, except break
odbc)

PythonWin 2.0 (#8, Oct 19 2000, 11:30:05) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] on win32.

>>>
>>> import dbi,odbc
>>> import pprint
>>> channel = odbc.odbc('sqltutor')
>>> ch1 = channel.cursor()
>>> ch1.execute('SELECT FirstName, LastName, Address, City, State FROM
EmployeeAddressTable')
0
>>> test1 = ch1.fetchall()
>>> pprint.pprint(test1)
[('Joe', 'Smith', '83 First Street', 'Howard', 'Ohio'),
 ('Mary', 'Scott ', '842 Vine Ave.', 'Losantiville', 'Ohio '),
 ('Sam', 'Jones ', '33 Elm St.', 'Paris', 'New York '),
 ('Sarah', 'Ackerman ', '440 U.S. 110', 'Upton', 'Michigan ')]
>>> ch1.close()
>>> channel.close()
>>> import mx.ODBC
>>> channel = mx.ODBC.Windows.connect('sqltutor')
>>> ch1 = channel.cursor()
>>> ch1.execute('SELECT FirstName, LastName, Address, City, State FROM
EmployeeAddressTable')

at this point the whole thing dies.  No error messages.  I didn't see any
log files anywhere either.
