Hi All,
I'm a python newbie so please be kind. I've been reading book after book and have written
a script or two but this is my first real "program". Just looking for any
suggestions and pointers. I've done some work with bash scripts and php (not OOP) a while
a go. I'm not a programmer but would like to possibly expand in to it (right now an IT
guy). Am I on the right track so far?
The program should be documented enough to explain.

Usage: cmd_drug_testing.py [options]...
Will select a random employee from the local database (located in the current
directory)
and display the name by default.
This program (Drug Testing) was written to help select employees for drug
testing.
Program usage:
-h, --help Displays this help info
-l, --list-emplys Lists all employees in the database
-s, --select Select employee for testing
-r, --remove-emply Delete employee from database, usage: -d
employee_name or id
-e, --edit-emply Edit employee data in database, usage: -e
employee_name or id
field_to_change new_value
-i, --insert-emply Insert new employee in database:
must fit this format -- "id:or '','lastname,
firstname', 'email',0"
-f Display database name and full path
This program was written by, Jason S. For the use of AA.

Thanks everyone.

Hi Jason,
the program could be more dense.
You have several redundant code in there, too.
For example, all the *Employee functions basically just call dbconnect
and let
it execute the sql there.
dbconnect in this respect is not a really straight name, as it does more
than only
connect to a database.
You should avoid "!= None", better is "is not None".
The program flow is "awkward": if argv is empty (better say "if not argv"),
you show one employee, but then continue to parse opts.
I think the program would be more readable, if you would just handle
the different cases in an if-elseif-else-cascade.
The global statement is not needed,
But you can also try pylint, which will point some things out:
