I should mention that if you use pywin32 build 215 or newer, an appropriate version of adodbapi will already be included. You do not need to download it separately from sourceforge or PyPi unless you are running IronPython. Since pywin32 is already a dependency for django-mssql, you should be covered. Also, it should not be too hard to add support for ACCESS and 3rd party databases. -- Vernon
