Been using the ODBC module for Python 2.1 (Win32) and had another question. When I return data from date columns, it's in a strange object form, e.g. <something or other> (don't have the output in front of me>.
What's an easy way to convert date objects into a human-readable string? I'm using this module to extract data from an Oracle database, then converting it to a flat-file for import into an old flat-file database on a mainframe. I need to be able to change the date object into something the mainframe database will recognize. Incidentally, I have just ordered: * Learning Python * Python Cookbook * Python Pocket Reference Are there any other books y'all would recommend as essential Python references and/or books for becoming fluent in Python? Thanks again. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
