I agree with George Sakkis' remarks. The best way to define this function is

def ExecuteSQL(cmdSQL, cursor):
  return cursor.execute(cmdSQL)

If this raises an exception, it likely means there is something
wrong with the SQL statement. The program should abort, and the
developer should correct it.
