Vernon,

I tested and it worked like a charm.  Thank you for helping me dispatch that headache so quickly.

Dear Edward:
  I feel your pain.  The whole idea of including adodbapi as part of pywin32 was to eliminate having to download and install it as a separate product. Having it broken in this release sadly means a trip back in time to the bad old days.  Here are the steps I took to attempt to reproduce your problem:
  1) create an new Windaws 8.1 virtual machine on Azure
  2) install Python 2.7.8 32 bit from python.org<http://python.org> using msi.
  3) instal pywin32 v 219 for 32 bit Python 2.7 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32
  4) put a "python" command on the search path using the method of my choice
  5) download adodbapi from http://sourceforge.net/projects/adodbapi
  6) unzip adodbapi
  7) running as an administrator,in the unzipped directory, "python setup.py install"
 C:\Users\vernon>c:\python27\python.exe
Python 2.7.8 (default, Jun 30 2014, 16:03:49) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win
32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import adodbapi
>>> adodbapi.version
'adodbapi v2.6.0.6'
>>> exit()

And that should do it.

Vernon,

Any update on a new compiled version of pywin that includes all the adodbapi components?

If not, how should I go about making my system work?  I want to document the exact steps so our sys admin can replicate on other systems that are running PyWin.  So far I have identified that apibase.py and process_connect_string.py are missing.  I first tried to run adodbapi-2.6.0.7\setup.py to repair it, but that did not resolve my issues.  Next, I manually copied the files to site-packages\adodbapi and everything seemed to work.  How should I be patching my site-package of adodbapi?  Is there another option?

Sys.version '2.7.5 (default, May 15 2013, 22:43:36) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)]'


Thanks

Ed
