Michael, I posted this morning but I don't know what happened to my post! In any case, PySqlite is the distribution I have used and is available at pysqlite.org. I believe there is another module called APSW (Another Python Sqlite Wrapper) available, that I stumbled upon just today, after reading your post. Home page : http://www.rogerbinns.com/apsw.html Please read the section "pysqlite differences" to see which one you want to install. As for installation, it should be as simple as downloading the win32 binaries for your Python distro and executing it. I do not have admin rights on my Win2K PC at work, but it installed and worked just fine. So, you should not have any problem. You will not have to install anything additional other the python-sqlite module itself. Good choice on selecting Sqlite..I love it and hope you will enjoy it too!
