The solution I'd like to use is the one where you can temporarily
override the setting using (if we were in VB):
DAO.DBEngine.SetOption dbmaxlocksperfile,15000
Really hurried answer:

<code>
import win32com.client

dao = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch ("DAO.DBEngine.36")
dao.SetOption (Option=win32com.client.constants.dbMaxLocksPerFile, Value=15000)

Thanks.  I found this: 
http://blogs.msdn.com/michkap/archive/2007/07/13/3849288.aspx
which outlines some difference between DAO and ADO, including:
"Capability to set and change Jet options without making registry
changes (works in DAO through DBEngine.GetOption and
DBEngine.SetOption, fails in ADO, which has no such analogue)."

You could try to use the Access ODBC driver and access the database
that way via mxODBC. That would be faster as well:

(scroll down to table 7.1)

Apart from that option and if you are really in need for larger
transactions, I'd suggest that you move to SQL Server for processing
(if you can). Access is not really made for heavy-lifting and big
transactions.
