People often do get get hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars worth of consultation from these groups, for free, by asking the right questions. Or by asking the questions right, which is the same thing but different. Focus. Be absolutely clear. What is it you need to know? -- --Bryan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Assuming you mean the Pervasive.SQL DBMS... ...depends what you're trying to do and what you're comfortable with. Pervasive can be accessed through various access methods, e.g. low-level C (Btrieve) and Java APIs, ODBC/JDBC, .Net, etc. For quick-and-dirty utilities and queries I tend to use the old Python ODBC driver and I've dabbled with Jython+zxJDBC. For production code I have the luxury of a tried-and-tested C wrapper developed in-house as a DLL, so I can use that through c-types. -- Neil -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
