Homepage: http://pyxsqmll.sourceforge.net Download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyxsqmll Description: a platform-independent means to access Microsoft SQL 2000. Dependencies: python 2.0 or greater, because i like the += operator. Functionality: uses HTTP Basic Authentication. : identical API to MySQLdb 0.3 (which is Python DB 2.0 compliant but i'm not sure about pyxsqmll: i removed some of the functions and haven't needed them, personally). : pyxsqmsll2000.py is a stand-alone program that accepts SQL commands on standard-input (note: no prompt given!) Recent changes: removed usage of py-xml-0.6.4 because it was waay to memory-heavy and time-consuming (sorry, guys). A 2.5mb response (with 800 records) took 45mb and 30 seconds to process. using the standard distro xmllib now _only_ takes 8mb and 10 seconds... python r0kz. [start getting worried when i add 'mi world' at the end] luke
