Today I discovered I'll need to read from a paradox database ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_%28database%29) and pull some information from it into my application. I cannot change the data source to SQL or another format as doing that would require a complete hardware overhaul to replace some ancient scanning equipment from the mid 90s. From doing a little research, I've found the general suggestion is to try pyodbc and hope it works. There's also a few tools which seem to be able to convert from paradox to another database format. However these are all linux-based and compiling for Windows is untested and undocumented.
Is it possible DAL might be able to work with this setup, and if so what would the connections string look like? Does anyone have experience with using web2py and paradox databases? Any suggestions?
