Maybe You should look into sqlalchemy.
I am also a newbie at that, but it allows you to do things like this 
(untested):
 sqltxt="""select * from mytable"""
 result=mysession.execute(sqltxt)
 for r in result.fetchmany():

which pretty good mimics the 'for eachrow in db.fetch_array():'

This is not an answer but

I have 10.3 installed, and I found that a lot of my (not python-) compiling 
troubles went away after installing 'a lot' from the 
development patterns presented by yast.
I am so demented that I tend not to get the dependencies straight when 
installing from the 'personal memory';-)

The retarded cousin - that's me!

I keep getting confused by the caret - sometimes it works - sometimes it's 
better with backslash-n
Yes - retarded cousin, I guess.

The file format is a config-track for a multitrack recording software, which i 
need to automate a bit.
I can start it from the command line and have it create a remix (using various 
vst and other effects)
Sometimes, however, we may have deleted the 'guitar.wav' and thus have to leave
out that track from the config-file or the rendering won't work.

Since it seems 'whitespace matters' in the file I have the following code to 
get me a tag:
I cost me a broken cup and coffee all over the the kitchen tiles - temper!

I still don't understand why I have to use \n instead of ^ af the start of 
TAGCONTENTS and TAGEND.
But I can live with it!

Thank you for your kind and humorous help!

Thank You Paul - I am very interested.
In between drinking coffee and smashing coffee cups, I actually visited your 
site and my
impression was: wow, If I could only take the time instead of struggling with 
this
'almost there' re thing!
I am not that good at it actually, but working hard, not worrying about the 
cups to much...

I will now revisit pyparsing and learn!

I cheated a bit on you and read this: http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/au/2557.

I live in a little danish town, Svendborg, nice by the sea and all.
I learned steel construction in the 80's at the local shipyard,
(now closed), much later (96-98) I received a very short education in
IT-skills on a business school in Odense, the nearest city.
I spent the years 98-05 working for Maersk Data, later IBM.
 From 05 and onwards independent.
Struggling hard to keep orders at a bare minimum,
I spend some of my spare time working with the elderly, and some of it
programming python for different purposes at home, and some of it playing
in the band: http://myspace.com/dementedk, and some of it combining the two.

So now You know more or less the same about me as I know about You.
Jorgen

Not sure, what you're after exactly, but I tried googling 'python read pdf'
and found this, so maybe 'reportlab' is what you're looking for:

To read and manage Portable Document Files you can use the open source 
ReportLab toolkit (written in Python) from:
