[Tutor] pyodbc/date values in MS Access

Hi, I'm using pyodbc (Python 2.5) to insert records in an MS Access database. For security reasons, question marks should be used for string replacement [*]. The standard %s would make the code vulnerable to sql code injection. Problem is, string replacement in the Good Way somehow doesn't work

Re: [Tutor] pyodbc/date values in MS Access
