need feedback on ADO and Python

[Michel Orengo]

Hi all!
I've been playing around with ADO (Microsoft ActiveX), and I came up with a
little module to give a more pythonic feel to the interface.
Now, I have a very limited knowledge of COM and Active X, so I'd like to
know if what I've done can be done more elegantly and if this module is
useful or not.
So here is the module.


I know that it is a very limited version but that's a beginning...
Thanks for your feedback.
