You need the Windows extension modules, win32all, from
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Downloads/ActivePython/Extensions/Win32all

Then someone has written a small page for using Python with Access, see
http://starship.python.net/crew/bwilk/access.html

You probably want to buy the book "Python Programming on Win32" to learn
more about COM and Python.

I don't know more, I don't do Windows...
