Hi Vineet The problem both you and the OP have is that you asked extremely vague questions. I've re-read the OPs post a number of times, and all I can see is some extremely vague discussion on how the ORM represents tables as model instances. I still don't see a question there, or at least one I can answer. Your question is only vaguely related to the OPs (in that it deals with the ORM). On mailing lists, some people find replying to another thread with a different question of your own almost as rude as TYPING IN ALL CAPS. It is best to start a new thread rather than hijacking someone elses. Secondly, continually bumping a thread each day is also very annoying. Both of these things will dissuade people from replying to you, so bear that in mind. Netiquette apart, your question is vague. You describe a system where by you can update various tables, updating the ones you want. This is a basic feature of ORMs - have you read the tutorial or any of the documentation on django's ORM? I think the basic point is that you are far too vague about what you want. You can't just point at us at some MS relational layer documentation from 2005 and expect us to wade through it, work out what you are currently doing, work out if that is applicable to Django's ORM and formulate a plan for you. You are going to need to do some of the work yourself. There are more ORMs out there than you can imagine. You need to work out what you want from a framework, and evaluate the frameworks out there to find the suitable one for your project. We can help by telling you about the Django one, but you need to help by telling us what you want to do with it (consider creating, reading, updating and deleting items as something that all the frameworks will do). I think you will find people here will be willing and responsive to help you, once you figure out what it is that you want from Django, and start asking precise questions about what Django can support.
