    To connect Python to Microsoft SQL Server, you can use pyodbc or SQLAlchemy with an ODBC driver. This allows you to run queries, insert data, and manage your database directly from Python.

    Example – Using SQLAlchemy with pyodbc:

    import sqlalchemy as sa
    from sqlalchemy import create_engine
    import urllib

    # Build ODBC connection string
    conn_str = urllib.parse.quote_plus(
    'DRIVER={ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server};'
    'SERVER=YOUR_SERVER_NAME;'
    'DATABASE=YOUR_DATABASE;'
    'UID=YOUR_USERNAME;'
    'PWD=YOUR_PASSWORD;'
    'Trusted_Connection=no;'
    )

    # Create engine
    engine = create_engine(f'mssql+pyodbc:///?odbc_connect={conn_str}')

    # Test connection
    try:
    with engine.connect() as conn:
    result = conn.execute(sa.text("SELECT @@VERSION"))
    for row in result:
    print(row[0])
    except Exception as e:
    print("Connection failed:", e)
    Copied!

    Using pyodbc directly is simpler for quick scripts:
