For Access 2000 and (I assume) later:
 >>> import win32com.client
 >>> a = win32com.client.Dispatch("access.application")
 >>> a.DBEngine.CompactDatabase("c:\\db1.mdb", "c:\\db2.mdb")
win32com.client is part of Mark Hammond's winall package.
c:\\db1.mdb is the database to be compacted & repaired
c:\\db2.mdb is the file to which the resulting database will be written.
