Hi The basic difference is that this code is just a Python wrapper around ADO, where as pyado.sourceforge.net as a Python DB-API 2.0 compliant driver for any database using PyADO. So we don't have to have multiple versions of the driver to support different databases. This has been used successfully with Access and Oracle and SQL server. Also the code will work for any Python system that has been set up to use the DB-API interface. So it is more natural to the Python way of doing things. You may find that your speed problems require using some of the Python win32 extensions to statically link the types: run python makepy.py "Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.5 Library" (but substitute the right version number) David Khurram wrote: >Hi, > >Thats the interface to microsofts ActiveX Database Objects. adodb was first >developed for php and it has drivers for almost any database.
