Hmmmmm... thanks.  I did a search on the group, but nothing showed up
with the keywords I used.  Kind of answers my question, but kind of
doesn't.

The one difference I have from that discussion is that I want to
interact with the database, both to select and save data.  So what I'm
asking is a good way to interact with the database that doesn't quite
fit with the strict transfer methodology.  Transfer seems to have a
strict one to one table->object mapping where what I want is more like
([table1, column1],[table1, column2], [table2, column1])->object
mapping.

Any thoughts?
