Wolfgang, thanks! I am very persuaded by your arguments regarding Python. What you have written makes me look at Python in a different light.
I happened to find a download of Python2.2 which I installed at work but have not tried out. I wish I could find detailed instructions on WHICH python to download from WHERE, and what I would need to download to access Postgresql from Python, and then some simple examples of sending a query to postgres and processing the results. I would be perfectly happy to work with it in that funny DOS window, I would not require that it be Windows GUI app. Just to be able to read and write to Postgresql. Do you think there is such a tutorial/documentation.
Thanks!
