You can try this connection string too:
DBfile = 'path /mymdb.mdb’ or ‘path/myaccdb.accdb’
conn = pyodbc.connect('DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb,
*.accdb)};DBQ='+DBfile, autocommit=True)
cursor = conn.cursor()

A connection string for ADO for Access looks like this:
conn.Open('Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data
Source=C:\\temp\\Database1.accdb')
The other stuff looks like the connection string for an ODBC connection.
If you don't have Office 2007 or later installed, then you need the
download at the link you provided. Otherwise, you have no need for it.

Hi,
I am facing some problems while accessing the Microsoft Access Database
2007, using win32com. The code and errors are given below.
I also tried the steps in the link but to no avail:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=23734
Could you help, or also if you know of a any other way of accessing the
database using the win32com module.

ActivePython 2.7.2.5 (ActiveState Software Inc.) based on
Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 24 2011, 12:22:14) [MSC v.1500 64 bit
(AMD64)] on win32

Code:
try:
import sys
from win32com.client import Dispatch
except ImportError as e:
print e
sys.exit(1)
if __name__ == '__main__':
data_source = "C:\\temp\\Database1.accdb"
access = Dispatch('ADODB.Connection')
access.Open('PROVIDER=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Driver={Microsoft
Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb)};DBQ=C:\\temp\\Database1.accdb;')
Error:
