[python-win32] Adding a really odd feature to Access as an odbc driver

[Grzegorz Adam Hankiewicz]

Hi.

I have an old application which uses Access, and possibly the reason why 
concurrent access wasn't designed is because transactions are not 
supported, so multiple writes could be trouble.

I was wondering if it would be possible to serialise all the read/write 
operations through a micro server with pywin32+twisted. I guess this is 
possible since the server just reads requests and deals them in a 
syncronous way. However, would it be possible to connect from the 
application to this serialisation server through odbc? Would this mean 
implementing a dummy odbc driver which just relays/gets the information 
and install it in the client?

The idea is implementing this behind the scenes without requiring to 
touch the original application. Is this possible at all?
