Alex,

Thanks for the input!

django-filter looks close.  However, it appears as django-filter is
based on pre-defined filters for pre-defined querysets, whereas I need
an interface that lets the user define the querysets and
filtersets...on the fly.  Is this correct?

I really need a full-blown query builder that essentially allows an
end user to query any or all tables (defined in models + auth_user)
with the capability of joins, where clauses, ordering, etc.  Maybe my
idea is a 'pipe dream', but none the less, it's a goal of mine to find/
build a decent web-based query builder tool.

Tools like mysql-admin connect to a db and read the schema which then
allows you to query the db.  I'd like to do the same but as a django
app, it would read the 'schema', so to speak, from the django
project's models.py.  This part, I have mostly working.  Providing a
useful, organized and efficient web interface seems to be the real
challenge.

Regards,

Mike
