I'm a little confused about what's out there for database modules at: http://python.org/topics/database/modules.html
What I'd like to do is use Python to access an Oracle 9.X database for exporting a series of tables into one aggregated table as a text file, for import into a mainframe database. The catch is that I'd like to write code that wouldn't need to be changed (much) if we switched from Oracle to some other RDBMS (still need to export out as a text file for import to the mainframe database. Looks like I'd probably want to use something that conforms to the DB-API 2.0. On the module list, I see DCOracle2, but it hasn't been updated since 2001. Anyone here use this module, and does it work with both Oracle 9.2 and Oracle 10g? Are there other DB-API 2.0 compliant modules I should be looking at? What are the advantages and disadvantages of the ones that can access Oracle 9.2 and Oracle 10g databases? Thanks in advance. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
