I've now had a closer look at both pyODBC and mxODBC and it seems to
me that they both require the database to be running to be able to

the database I want to query is not running.
Cheers,
Jimmy

a query. I am also interested by mxODBC and pyodbc
Hi All,
I use Ubuntu 64 bit and need to develop a programme (ideally in
Python) to work on data that is contained in a Microsoft Access 2003
database. I do not need to modify the database, simply read a few
columns of data from some tables.
Google hasn't been able to offer me a suitable solution
