PyPyODBC

PyPyODBC delivers an updated interface to ODBC using native data types like datetime and decimal.

Developers can use PyPyODBC to connect and interact with ODBC supported databases from inside a Python-based service, website, or application.

The module works the same as pyodbc, but provides a different approach and a small speed boost.

Besides this, compared to pyodbc, PyPyODBC also provides extra Access MDB file creation and compacting functions.
