Tried it with SQL Server Native Client 9.0 and 10.0, SQL Server 2005 and 2008. No good. Tried it with DataDirect's ODBC driver (looks like a goond one, but not free): also no good, although the error here was that the cursor was closed. Wrote the sqlautocode developer and he doesn't do work on SQL Server but he's trying to help out as he can. It does generate the Tables etc and the foreign keys, so it's worth it from that standpoint! And for free you can't beat it! :-) Paul I tried sqlautocode as well against SQL Server and got the same ““It seems that this dialect does not support indexes!” error.

Here is how you setup unixodbc

As far as sqlalchemy is concerned you need to do the following:
sqlalchemy.dburi=”mssql://username:password@hostname:1433/databasename?driver=TDS&odbc_options=’TDS_Version=8.0′”

The only thing I would add is if your pyodbc test fails with an error like: File "", line 1, in ? : ('IM002', '[IM002] [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not found, and no default driver specified (0)') ...you might have to copy /usr/local/etc/odbc.ini to /etc/odbc.ini and /usr/local/etc/odbcinst.ini to /etc/odbcinst.ini (at least this was my experience, possibly because unixODBC was already installed with my linux distribution) Thank for this, it was very useful – if only everyone using open source were so generous and shared they’re experiences!

The only thing I would add is if your pyodbc test fails with an error like:

File “”, line 1, in ?
: (‘IM002′, ‘[IM002] [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data
source name not found, and no default driver specified (0)’)

…you might have to copy /usr/local/etc/odbc.ini to /etc/odbc.ini
and /usr/local/etc/odbcinst.ini to /etc/odbcinst.ini

(at least this was my experience, possibly because unixODBC was already installed with my linux distribution)
