Well, I haven't usd it yet but I think you need(for Windoze) 1) The Sqllite executable OR the DLL 2) The pysqlite library to interface between Pyhon DBI and SQLIte and probably 3) SQLIte Explorer for a civilised SQL IDE environment > Also, would Gadfly be easier, being native Python? Gadfly might be easier to accomplish the task but the knowledge would be less transferrable IMHO The effort of learning SQL is fairly minimal (at least to get up to basic speed) but the benefits are immense. I strongly recommend taking the extra time to learn SQL and SQLite looks like a fairly easy way in - it doesn't have power user features like Oracle, Interbase, PostGres etc, but almost all you learn in it will transfer to those heavier weight DBs later if you need it. Thanks for reminding me about SQLite Sandip, I've been meaning to try it for ages and your post was the incentive to download it... It looks promising and I will probably use it for my tutorial, whenever I get round to it!
