        We use the dbapi-compliant module pymssql. Then it's just like  
connecting to anything else:

ci = dabo.db.dConnectInfo(DbType="MsSQL", Host="myserver", User="ed",  
PlainTextPassword="whatever", Database="mydatabase")
conn = dabo.db.dConnection(ci)

        The .Net people are all ga-ga over LINQ, as if it were something  
new. Been doing that in Python for years!
