Accessing Personal Geodatabases with Python

A "personal geodatabase" (PGDB) is a format used by ESRI ArcGIS software. It is really a Microsoft Access database so methods to access MS "MDB" files will allow you to directly read and write PGDB's.

I am creating this page right now.

Currently you can only update attributes with this method. If you have to update spatial data, use ArcObjects instead.
