I tried the win32com.client method, but it's not available in PythonCE, or atleast not that I can find. I get the usual errors about the lack of a module. I attempted to simply copy the desktop win32com and win32 folders to the PPC. This got me a little further, but inevitable there were modules missing, etc, etc. I guess I could keep working through it this way and try to cobble something together that will work, but it seems there should be a better way.
OLE is available, at least in some form, in Win Mob. I use ADOCE with _vbscript_ pretty successfully. To my knowledge ADOCE is just a scaled down version of ADODB.
