Python is an excellent language for cross platform development, that was chosen by my
development team.
DBISam is a very solid database, to which I'm accustomed to, being an old Delphi
programmer as I am.
Is there any library for managing DBISam from Python ?
Thanks.

Python supports ODBC so yes u can purchase
an ODBC distro it from www.elevatesoft.com

Thanks, but what about Linux ?
My development team has chosen Python because we're facing a cross platform development.
The question is: How to develop a Python application that running from either OS ( Linux
or Windows XP ) should be able to access a DBISam database hosted in a file server (
Window shared or Samba ).

Aldo,

The only option there would be to use the Kylix and DBISAM to build a
library that can be accessed by Python, but that is a lot of work and Kylix
is iffy on newer distros.

Tim,

 Thanks for your answer, but been Kylix a frozen product that Boland abandoned, it is out
of consideration for my team.
