I guess maybe this link was referring to PHP ...
Well, painfully I'm making some progress. And I appreciate your help in
this. I think my previous problem was because I was doing
rs.Open(sqlstmt)
instead of:
rs.Open(sqlstmt, conn)
> To execute a generic SQL statement, you create an ADODB.Command object
> and connect it to the Connection:
>
> cmd = win32com.client.Dispatch("ADODB.Command")
> cmd.ActiveConnection = conn
> cmd.CommandText = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM committees;"
> rs = cmd.Execute[0]
>
>
> Now rs is a recordset.
Now, I've got your above example working. Almost. For me
rs = cmd.Execute[0]
failed with
TypeError: unsubscriptable object
However, trying this variation:
(rs, result) = cmd.Execute()
did work. Problem is when I then try
data = rs.GetRows()
I get
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#59>", line 1, in -toplevel-
data = rs.GetRows()

'Operation is not allowed when the object is closed.',

I feel so tantillizingly close...
