Not sure about "SQL-like", but the conf/ini file type could be considered a reasonable database format for simple needs, and is easy to parse/write. The ConfigParser is documented here: http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-ConfigParser.html And Fredrik Lundh's examples usage is here: http://effbot.org/librarybook/configparser.htm And the Initialization File format is described here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INI_file -- _ _ ___ |V|icah |- lliott http://micah.elliott.name [EMAIL PROTECTED] " " """ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
