An interesting development. I noticed that in site-packages\ibm_db_sa
was pyodbc.py. Thinking that might be an older version, I renamed it,
trying to force the import to use my installed version instead. It now
says "cannot import name pyodbc". I thought Python searched the
current directory, then the site-packages one, for modules? If so, and
if I can import pyodbc with no errors in the shell, why would
ibm_db_sa fail to import? This may be the problem--it was using an
older version of pyodbc and can't find the newer one for some reason.
Any ideas, or am I completely off track with this?
